Well that was a fine “Hallmark Holiday” event up here. I was able to schedule all my work (boooo) for Friday evening, so I enjoyed two days off in a row! A rarity these days for sure. I feel like I sort of maximized my time too, a nice balance of chores and fun. Admittedly, it probably skewed towards the fun side of things a little. As part of the “chores” category, I got the tow kit mounted on the front of the jeep. It wasn’t quite as easy as it looked, but then nothing is. I had to pull the bumper off, which was expected. What wasn’t expected was that when I took the three large bolts off the drivers side, the power steering pump fell off. Whoops. I’m blaming the seller for that one, at least a bit. OK maybe I could have looked a little closer, but I think when he was telling me how to mount it he JUST MIGHT HAVE MENTIONED THAT. It didn’t go back on very easily either, sort of like a big heavy puzzle piece. It appears to be back together now though, albeit without a front bumper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For Mothers Day, we went to brunch at a nearby winery. It was delicious, we were quite happy with our choice. It was a great day out too, which made it even more enjoyable. After that we went home and took a little nap, which was made easier by the boring Royals game. For dinner I made a batch of pesto and homemade pasta, which came out nicely. Man that pesto is work though! Yeah a food processor makes it easier, but it’s just not as good as a mortar and pestle. That’s the truth too… We did side-by-side comparisons on our trip to Italy, it’s a very noticeable difference. Worth the effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
