Just finished prepping for tomorrows dinner of a kriek based compote for grilled salmon.  So i get to reap the rewards a bit early and get to drink the leftover Lips of Faith Dark Kriek.  Not quite as sour as i would have liked, but a tasty New Belgium brand.  We were supposed to awaken to over 12" of whitey today, but instead it rained/sleeted/hailed all night long.  Actually about 48 hours worth.  Nice for the grass...

It allowed us to work on the baby room a bit more.  We were able to get the closet "doors" up.  Actually we have the type of closet that has two sliding doors; those are long gone!  Jan sewed up some curtains and i suggested sewing button holes in the top to attach to the wall with some painted drawer pulls.  It turned out pretty nice.

Dad called and reported that his fundraiser was very successful.  He has a shit ton of hospital bills from his heart attack and his community really banded together to support him.  Stacey's boyfriend, Brian, cooked up like 125 steaks for the dinner (there's a new job dude!!).  They raised some nice cash to offset his debt.  Glad to hear that...
