Sorry I've been MIA all week, I've just been crazy busy!
We finally got around to painting the kitchen - I am in love with the color. It's by Benjamin Moore the color is called light avocado. It looks so good I could just lick the walls. These pictures don't do it justice, but take my word for it - it's lovely! 
We have been having some CRAZY weather - on Monday we got a ton of snow - I had to dig out some snow pants for Francis to wear to school. On Friday is was 19 degrees and he went to school in a t-shirt! We have had some serious wind too. This is what happens when you put up your gazebo a week too early.Last night we went over to Elisa and Jarrod's house for a traditional Chinese dinner - they made Peking duck among other delicacies. Doris and Dan made dumplings with a chicken filling that were deep fried - soooo yummy!!!I made beef and cabbage dumplings with peanut-butter sauce - It was a real feast I can tell you!!! Unfortunately, I forgot my camera, so we will have to wait until Doris and Elisa post some pictures of the evening. I must also share that Dan made some kick-ass martinis for us girls - There should be an incriminating photo popping up soon.

Your dinner party sounds like so much fun, good too! I'll have to go and check out Doris' site!
Isn't 19 degrees a little cold to be wearing just a t-shirt?!? :)

We are having whacked-0ut weather too!! We are still having 30C+ degree days, in APRIL! That's just weird. Its definitely normally getting colder by now!!! Not that I'm complaining!!!
Oooo, it's so good when you paint a really nice colour!!! I have one deep burgundy wall in my kitchen, (called "Cab Sav" like the wine!) and I just LOVE it!
Ohhhh I love love the color. (and the name of the color).

The kitchen looks great....can we come to the next dinner party? We love Chinese food! lol
Love the kitchen colour, I did put my ass into gear and get the photo's up of the weekend!
I JUST did my kitchen in almost the exact same color!!!! Mine was called "nettle".
Yours Looks G.R.E.A.T!!!
cracking up at the wall-licking comment. Saw your incriminating pics on Doris's blog. Looks like fun and how neat that you all have each other. The kids look like they had fun too.
Pretty colors. I am struggling to paint my living area right now. So far only half of a wall done...
