"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Two favorites:

Sweet Potato Risotto which is sort of like leftovers if you have yams, but not quite. Also, delicious if you add bratwurst in. Plus one pan!

Also, shepherd's pie (which again, you could have leftovers in it without it being a leftover dish).

Both easy and big dishes and single pot ones.

Because books.

Ooh, shepherd's pie. I bet S. would like that idea.

Yay Perkins! I'm late to the party, but I want to add that I also bought the first house I toured. It CAN happen!

Even if you don't get this one, you'll be a step closer to knowing what it is you're looking for, which will help winnow the choices you'll face.

If power for well water is a worry, get a generator. You're in earthquake territory, so it's a sooner-or-later proposition, and will be a source of worry avoidance even if you never fire it up in earnest.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Thanks all!

I do hope this works out, though I decided last night I'm not going to be crushed if it doesn't. Of course, I am also mapping my current furniture into the new floor plan already.

Houses like carrots!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

A giant vat (get on of those disposbale aluminum trays if you don't have a large casserole) of homemade mac and cheese.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Go, Perkins!

AMy, for bulk feeding, I immediately think of chili or lasagna.
