Spring Forward to April Showers

The rain is relentless right now. Came just in time as I was arriving home for the day, and has not stopped since.

I've been doing a lot of business communications this weekend over renting out our entire, humongous, lovely house to 4 new lucky tenants. The emails and phone calls are constant, and we had a bit of an open house today. I've never considered read estate before. And still don't really.

But I do know that I am becoming my mother's daughter. Why? Because the notion of having visitors this weekend made me feel like welcoming my guests with food. So I baked my now perfected banana bread, as muffins (minus the blueberries, keep the chocolate chips). And they liked them very much, thank you.

I also mastered another meal this weekend. Salmon burger topped with marble cheese, fried onions, mushrooms, and red pepper. On a whole wheat bun of course.

And, another accomplishment as a reward for doing a fantastic job on my business assignments this week. I finished the shawl. Originally intended for me because the colour choice is very me, but I feel really good about giving it away to someone (it's a surprise, so no naming names at this point).
