tiramisu: weekend pics

alot of laundry and ironing was done this weekend! sorry, this is not very exciting news to share but what a relief to finally get it all done. you see, our dryer is not working well so clothing are dried the old fashioned way - on a clothes line. this entails lots of ironing. thankfully, a new washer and dryer will be delivered in a couple of weeks.

for more exciting news, stefan made a couple of beautiful soups this weekend. at the farmers market, the last one of the season, we came across some lovely mini peppers which ended up in a soup along with some bison sausage. it was perfection. he also made a leek and potato soup (the one from here), that we shared with our friends darrin and alexia. their little girl, kara, cute as ever, loved the hamster, the drums, and kai (she had an endless supply of hugs for him)! stefan and alexia share a love of chocolate so of course thomas haas was in the house too!

we also had jacob hanging out with us on saturday, our friend's son. his playdate was with kai but he and stefan enjoyed chatting about supernovas and such too - he is a brillant (and sweet) boy. jacob and kai were in utero at the same time and have been friends since. as with most of our friends we wish we could hang out more often with jacob and family.

we were too late, the rosemary cookies sold out!

among all the laundry and ironing i did fit in a morning run but i kept getting distracted by all the lovely spring blooms. the cherry blossoms and tulips are a couple of my favourite flowers.
