Obviously, I'm trying to remember to take photos.

I didn't get nearly as much accomplished today as I hoped. Mostly because of the enormous afternoon nap that somehow happened.

But I did manage to make shortcakes for the market berries. So that was exciting. I used Alton Brown's shortcake recipe and it was absurdly easy using my food processor. I can't believe I had everything on hand--even shortening and half and half.

The berries are good. Not perfect yet--still a bit too tart (so I macerated them in sugar for a bit). But they're exciting nonetheless!

Also, my camera and the general lack of natural light is bumming me out. Every picture I take ends up too dark and slightly blurry. BOO!

I still have 3 loads of laundry to do (two loads of it towels and bedding) and I have to go grocery shopping for the week, but at least the kitchen's been tidied up (one more load of dishes to go) and the countertops aren't sticky anymore. I also finally unpacked. Whee!
