January 3rd. A very productive day..........we finally got our plates and insurance for the car, it was very time consuming and more expensive than we had thought....anyway I guess it is just another cost of moving. We picked up some drapes I had ordered and had them put up before 4pm..........they were much nicer than I had expected.........soooo you win some you lose some!!! Tried a new recipe for supper...got it from the Chatelaine recipe file.....Taco Salad....it was well received and a good way to use up left over nachos. Also made seafood chowder for supper tomorrow night.......I like to let it rest overnight to improve the flavor. Have some BC smoked salmon with pepper to add to it when I heat it up....used it for the first time before Xmas...and it was a hit. One more thing that I accomplished today I got the Orange yarn...might have to adjust the pattern but am eager to get started now.
