housewifed!

My life here so far has been about:

Grocery shopping at $teeny tiny grocery stores$ stocked full of all things Jewish. Nearly knocking over many a tiny Jewish grandma in the process.

Picking up the doctor's dry cleaning at one of the million cleaners within spitting distance of our apartment, (every other storefront is a dry cleaners or a nail salon--mani/pedi $15!).

Admiring all the stylish women in their big Chanel sunglasses, complete with teacup poodles in designer purses while searching for the bank, the post office, the parking guy, the Crate and Barrel...

Cooking full dinners with soup and everything, all Chinese mamas out there should be proud, packing lunch for my hubby..

Scrubbing nasty floors, ridding all remains of the infamous foam peanuts, doing mountains of king-sized laundry, fighting a losing battle with dirt armed only with a small Dirt Devil Broom Vac...speaking of which, every time I use or open up a new gadget I think fondly of the people who gave it to us! Heeee...ahhh..the George Foreman grill, the beautiful Denby dishes...the lush bathmat under my feet, so fun...

See for yourself...

Congratulations - you won the housewife contest :)

Glad to hear that you are settling in somewhat & taking care of your hubby!

Your building, hood & backyard look amazing!

Oh yeah, don't forget to pick up some Swiss Miss Hot Chocolate for those upcoming chilly days. It's our fave brand and we always add a bit of condensed milk (nonfat of course) to make it more creamy.

Nice digs! Glad to hear life in the big city is going well. Duncan will be well taken care of. Enjoy making your home as lovely as your dorm room ever was (how you managed to make a room in Cronkhite look so nice and comfy, I'll never know!).
