Waiting. Hoping. What do you do while you're waiting and hoping to settle on a house? While the seller is waiting and hoping for the exchange rate to become more favorable for her?
El sr J makes plans for our new kitchen:
I'm crocheting down my yarn stash. After ruminating for a while about what to make, I decided on some pillows. I found a shop that sells upholstery supplies. I didn't know the word for pillow stuffing, so I looked it up in my on-line dictionary. Unclear. Could it possibly be the same word as in chiles rellenos? I asked the clerk if they had relleno for pillows and waited for her confused expression. Instead, she turned around, went into a room and came out with samples of three different kinds. I bought the kind that feels like cotton candy, but el sr J is reluctant to touch because it may contain some nasty chemicals. I bought a kilo, which turned out to be a very big bagful.
So here are the pillows. They don't really match each other or anything else, but they've kept me busy.

If the house business isn't settled soon, I'm afraid I'll smother us in pillows and all those kitchen plans will have been for naught.
