Life continues to move forward…
Our ballots were received in Pennsylvania, all of the paperwork for the home financing has been submitted – and there is a ton of paperwork – VA appraisal is in progress, and we’ll know our official move-in date in 8 days.
Moving forward.
We’re even getting more creative with our two burner stove.
I made a batch of chicken soup for lunches and then did a Skillet Chicken Parmesan with Rigatoni.
A simple fried chicken breast covered in Victor’s homemade sauce, and then topped with cheese. I used the skillet lid to melt the cheese.
Last night, Victor made a simple pasta sauce with cherry tomatoes, garlic, Italian herbs, crushed red pepper, and cheese.
Basic, simple, and totally delicious!
We finally bought a cutting board because I got tired of using a paper plate to slice and dice on. And a can opener. We had packed knives and the kitchen shears – and a favorite wooden spoon – but forgot a few of the other basics.
One can never have too many cutting boards…
I do realize that living in two rooms as we are would be considered a luxury for many people, but it really is not easy when you’re used to space, open doors, and a full kitchen. I really miss a full-sized refrigerator and all of our pots and pans!
But… good things come to those who wait.
We’re waiting…
