The plumber's here working on our main floor toilet that's been out of commission for a few weeks. He says he also does renovations so he's going to give us a quote for doing our bathroom upstairs.
K and I are going to the bank to open his own account, as you can do that when you're 13 and older, including his own debit card. Then he has a tennis lesson while L has an eyebrow threading appointment. Maybe I can find some new dress sandals today as I can only find one foot of my favourite pair and am devastated. K got new sandals as his feet have grown 2 sizes since last summer! He's also been doing sit ups and using M's hand weights. Cute.
A lot of kids L's age seem to be using March break to tour the universities. Maybe we should be doing the same.
It's supposed to go to 14C today! Wow.

Happy St. Patty's Day!!
My appliance guy is coming out today with the part to fix my dishwasher (I hope).
That is a good idea to open a bank account for your 13 year old. The debit card too. Best they learn these things while they're still in the nest.
Interesting article on the fish! I just tried a new salmon recipe that my Japanese friend gave me. Take a square of foil, lightly greased. Put one salmon fillet, sprinkle lightly with salt, lay some herbs on top (I used tarragon), add some thinly sliced onions, some veggies (green beans, zucchini, mushrooms, etc), add a small dot of butter (can omit), fold up the foil on the sides, pour in a bit of Sake, and cook in a PAN on the stove (not in the oven, this was new to me), until it is cooked the way you like it--not too long for me. You can carefully unroll the foil after a few minutes to take a peek. It's so good! We had it twice last week. :-)
Hope you had a chance to get some green treats/drinks yesterday, Mom.
Japra, it'll be a good feeling when that dishwasher's all fixed. So how do you cook that fish in the pan as it's all wrapped in foil? Are you then steaming it or boiling it in water, or just heating that foil directly in the pan?
You just put the foil in the pan and the fish steams in the foil. It's great with rice :-)
Ok, thanks Japra, I'll give it a try next fish day!
