Today and yesterday we managed to get most of the stuff we needed for our house (other than stuff for the spare rooms). We got a lot of it at a used furniture store (but we bought a brand new bed, and a new futon-style couch). It was a buying frenzy in the used furniture store. Quite exciting- everything was so cheap and the owner even threw in a bunch of stuff for free! Tomorrow we are going to garage sales.
We have a lemon tree growing in our yard- the lemons are huge, and delicious (not too sour).
We had the cheapest and most delicious fish and chips for supper- (just $4- $3 CAD for all that!)
Actually, we're finding food isn't as expensive here as we thought it would be. Certain things (like canned pop and bottled drinks) are more, but some things (such as certain fruits, and fish and chips) are less.
This is so awesome Cath... I love the pictures and being able to know what you guys have been up to by this blog site. Post some interior pics of your house when you get a chance. Nice car btw!
