I made banana bread with Senor Onion. He asked to bake. Again. So we did. Again. He just likes an excuse to bust out the white paddle and use the electric mixer. Mr. Jenner made fun of the amount of cakey things we have in the house. But he isn't really complaining.
While Senor Onion napped I perused upholstery fabric online. We need to redo the dining room chairs and it is a simple enough project that we can probably handle it. I will say there is a lot of incredibly ugly fabric out there. I mean OOOGLY. It is like there is this on-going secret contest with textile designers for the level of ugly that is being achieved. "Ten points if someone actually purchases what appears to look like geometric vomit."
The other theme (which isn't a bad one in some respects) is vaginal designs. And hey I am not saying the vaginal look is bad. Vaginas are always an entertaining bit of symbolism and you can never go wrong with luring in the audience with a bit of that. (Thank you Georgia O'Keefe and Judy Chicago) I just wonder if it might be off-putting in the dining room. Here have a seat on some metaphorical cupcakes. Or something. Actually I can think of several people who would love to sit on such chairs. So I maybe I should have gone with the vagina print. Dinner would be extra exciting.
In the end we went for some cheerful stripey nonsense. Lots of color and no beige. Beige marks the beginning of the end. Beige means you might enter the land of taupe. Beige and taupe are fine for those who like beige and taupe.
Also beige and taupe aren't good colors when you live with someone who spills things. Namely me. And probably the two year old. But mostly me.
I should point out the stain on my dress right now. Apparently I lost the ability to drink out of a cup. Thankfully my breasts act as a nice shelf for my dribbling. I should get wear a bib and give up.
Well then, I think I will lie in bed reading fluffy murder mysteries and hope no one feels compelled to celebrate Orthodox Fourth of July at two am.
