I LOVE unpacking. Hate packing. But the good news is we found a nice place and we move in next week \ud83d\ude42 Woohoo!<\/p>\n<p>But damn I have a lot of stuff. You just don&#8217;t realize how fast it accumulates until you have to shift it. I&#8217;ve found a few things I thought I&#8217;d lost though. Things like the first cassette of my BBC radio production of A Clockwork Orange. I listened to that over and over when I lived in England. Tonight I found a $100 bond the grandparents gave Shannon back in 1993. That was cool. <\/p>\n<p>The thing I want to find the most however, still remains elusive. Years ago I misplaced my handwritten recipes of food I used to cook at the pub. I wish it would turn up, there was good stuff in there. Things like a brilliant Stilton and Peppercorn sauce to go over a thin steak, or the cinnamon and pear sauce that goes over seared duck breast. And it had the most fabulous recipe for Tiramisu that I&#8217;d kill to make again. *sigh*<\/p>\n<p>So we&#8217;re leaving one of the desks and the loveseat behind. I might see if the hottie mover guy wants the desk. The sofa though is going to the dump. It&#8217;s past its prime.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, this post has become dull. Back to the packing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230;is in these boxes. And these are just three rooms and a few closets. Eesh. I hate packing. I LOVE unpacking.
