Let's Paint

Sunday, February 21, 2010
Today was a busy busy day. We started painting at 10AM this morning and didn't finish until 4PM. About halfway through we realized the color we were painting the media room looked a lot like Roma. It's a Roma colored room... aahhh! Not intentional I promise. We bought Behr's "premium" paint (primer + paint in one) this time around and were not disappointed. We did 1-2 coats, NOT 4,  like another room we painted a dark, bold color.

After painting, exercise, and a trip to the grocery we whipped up a quick dinner. I saw this recipe in this months issue of Cooking Light- tuna steaks topped with basil verde sauce and roasted fennel. Here's the recipe. Neither Ross nor I like fennel very much, but we decided to give it a try because it was the suggested side dish. We roasted mozzarella cheese with the fennel instead of the asiago the recipe calls for. SO GOOD! Who woulda thought??

We installed a new light fixture in our kitchen, just above the dining table... It seems like a lot more home improvement projects occur AFTER hunting season ends. I love it. :)
