It's been snowing a lot where I am, and with only brief breaks this upcoming week, it will snow a lot more. On Monday I have my US embassy visit for my passport renewal. We may take the train in, weather depending, but need to get up super early. The embassy is not convenient to get to from the main train station. Otherwise, nothing else on the calendar for the week, which is such a relief.

Last night I burned my left hand to the point of big blisters on my index finger. It hurt for hours, but miraculously not much any more. As much as I love to cook and bake, I'm no careless with safety, and I never seem to learn lessons from the many incidents.

Hubby and I have to make some decisions on things for our upcoming new house. It's often a stress as Hubby has different preferences than I do and is slow to decide anything. I always feel I'm the one compromising. When it comes to the kitchen, I swear I wish I had 90% of the say, but I don't. Sucker only ever loads the dishwasher, occasionally, nothing else there besides eating. Many men leave this stuff mostly to women, but he's too involved. Sorry if this seems sexist. My bad!
