Walk, drive out to house
May. 26th, 2026 11:00 pmI got up early enough to go for a walk with M. at 9 am. Woot! It wasn’t hot yet and it was nice to get a walk.
I made A.’s breakfast and my lunch and headed out to the new house with the drawer pulls for the drawers in reception. I made a lot of decisions about knobs. Good day, a little muddy at the house but not too bad. The railing in the 2nd floor seating area looks truly, truly, truly beautiful.
R. and I went out to eat at Silver Girl. I had the beans and greens and the foccacia and the olive oil cake. It was slightly too much food, especially with the Tokyo Boilermaker (in a can! And a fancy little glass and sitting on a tray — very cute, and very well curated beer + whisky — I got it because the whisky was nikka coffey grain, and I trusted them to pick a matching beer and they really did). I also got a 1 oz pour of the Van Winkle 12 year reserve. I’m thinking I really do need to get a bottle of that. I have thought this before, but never successfully acquired any. I’ll probably keep not actually acquiring any.
