The fishy 2 year plan...

Two years ago, around this time, we bought our house! Very shortly after that we traded our television for a large fish tank.

Last year, around this time, we painted our living room and moved the fish tank to it's permanent location. Then we filled the tank with water.

The tank sat... filled with water but no fish for another year. There were complications with filters and heaters...it took us a while to sort it all out. But...

Finally! On New Year's Eve we bought fish! We started with some long finned zebra danios and added some mollys last week. See:

They swim fast...

We'll keep adding fish at the rate of one species a week for a little while, until we stop.

I'll also keep adding socks to the collection. The most recent pair (Bill is becoming quiet adept at taking pictures of my feet, don'tcha think?):

We haven't had much activity to report here in a while. There are a few things going on at our food blog, though. But it's been pretty quiet all around. We're just trying to stay warm!! And fill the fish tank.

  1. Love the colors in the sock yarn -- they definitely look warm and cozy!

    My husband just never "got it" about having fish -- I think they're just fun to watch, and some species have such striking colors! Enjoy!
