Color!
















I did enjoy the weekend even though the only pictures I have are from the inside of HoY! We enjoyed a progressive dinner on Friday. We started by buying a new bed at WestElm. We then went to Park Kitchen and had a drink (me a sidecar, the cow a martini) and the deep fried green beans (beyond yummy - and the season is almost over). We then went to the all white bar called Apothec (all they serve is straight liquor - NO mixed drinks). By this time we were getting a bit loopy! We then walked up to NW 21st to Cafe Mingo. This was our first experience at Mingo and we had an absolutely awesome evening. Good food and GREAT wine! Actually the wine is a funny story. When we arrived at CM we were waiting for a table and asked for a glass of the "house white". While we were having dinner we noticed that our glasses were empty and asked for another glass. When the bill came we realized that we had paid $12.00 a glass for the "house white." The cow signed the check and we chalked it up to live and learn. As I was guzzling down the last of the $12.00 glass the server came over and apologized for overcharging us for the "house white." He voided the first charge and made our evening even more enjoyable. All in all a great dinner and a great evening.
Saturday brought painting and cleaning at HoY. We finished the walls in the living room and the accent wall in the bedroom. The cow started on the ceiling on bedroom 2. It wasn't a fun process and required a second coat. The rooms are coming along quite nicely. We had a mattresss delivered and our bedframe is waiting for our first night in HoY!
The new neighbor seems really nice. She stopped by and had a good lead on a house for sale in the neighborhood, so anyone looking for house and want to be our neighbors let us know- quick! She also said - "Wow! You guys like color!"
