so i got the keys today, and it’s ours – we actually went over tonight, just for an hour or so, to kind of say hello to the apartment without our realtor, and to put some of our stuff there – so now it’s our apartment, that we purchased, that we have keys to, and inside it is two typewriters, toilet paper, and a couple of paintings. symbolic, yet meaningful! i’m so excited.

Tri-Berry Muffins – once again, Barefoot Contessa – while I was preparing these, I got the odd feeling that I had totally made them before and not accounted for them! No matter, they were delish both times.
