Not going so well.
Started out like this.
Current status:
Crikey.
(and yes, notice how well I'm adapting to the suburban lifestyle - there's a remarkable absence of a vehicle in the garage. It's full of other shit. Including now blue AND green ugly furniture.)
So, we shelved that project for a couple days while I ponder lies in advertising, and instead, we did this
And on Sunday morning, my parents brought over this
as well as a whole feast of traditional Polish Easter breakfast yummies, and we did this
and this
Yes, we play with our food. This is a game where you take your (hard-boiled) egg and knock it against your neighbour's. There's usually one tough egg in the crowd which smashes all the other eggs. This year it was my dad's.
Oh yeah, and that dishwasher? Well, it's not as loud as say, going around Cape Horn in a gale. (As if I'd know. But I have a great imagination.) But I wouldn't exactly call it so quiet that you barely know it's on and you sit at the kitchen table sipping tea and are momentarily startled when it empties - cause that makes a small gurgling sound - and you say 'honey, I didn't know you turned on the dishwasher.' That is the quiet I'm looking for.

Hey, hey, hey! I resemble that remark. Or rather, our (three-car) garage (without a single vehicle) does...
Crikey is also a giveaway, especially if you wear your Wellies when you say it : )
I was hoping you'd post about Polish Easter treats!
PS From all those shelter magazine I read, there seem to be a lot of people paying good money for half-stripped, two-tone wood furniture lol -- so your stuff looks pretty chic.
Hey Becky! LOL about the garage. So what do you keep in your garage?
Of course I wear wellies. Sometimes I wear galoshes. :-)
The egg-smashing looks like so much fun. I wonder why no one has incorporated that into a Seder. Heh, heh.
