Every day is a beach day, even if it isn’t exactly a beach day
It began last night when I texted my next door cousin Jay (I have more than a few next door cousins) that if she texted me in the morning, I would freeload some coffee at the Old Cabin. And so I did.
After that it was a work day in which the dev team once again went rogue on me and did some design work that I wasn’t crazy about. It’s okay. I love the dev team and our application is SPRAWLING and inconsistent in so many ways I can totally understand when things like this happen.
I worked through all of that and then it was 3:30 or so and the Brimley Bay Mills farmers market started at 4:00 and I sorta had to drag myself out to go there. Afternoon is not my time of day to go out, probably because on The Planet Ann Arbor, the roads are clogged with traffic. Not so much here so off I went. And. Score. The two bags on the left are filled with SHELLING PEAS!
It turned out that a facebook friend was there but I missed her. I did encounter a couple of beach neighbors but I am such a focused shopper (asparagus in this case) that they had to just about knock me over to get my attention😵💫
The pic also provides a glimpse of the kitchen The Commander designed when we built the moomincabin in 1960. I think it has stood the test of time. I showed a pic of this kitchen to Certified Kitchen Lady when we gutted the Landfill kitchen and she raved about the yellow counters. I chose white and teal for the Landfill but these yellow counters work and Magic Eraser helps keep them clean, especially when somebody spills Angostura bitters on them.
It wasn’t really a beach day today. Windy and chilly but I had a lot of work to do and the moomincabin was a great place to do it. The work “synergy” of everyone being in the same room be damned. Working in the office I worked in was fine but our meetings often started with 15-20 minutes of discussion about vampire movies or video games. Work synergy?

Those magic erasers ARE magic. I’ve also found a bit of windex on marks on the walls removes them quite well.
