I Guess We're "Nesting"

Well, we're all moved in, and while we wait a few more weeks (months?) for our bed and books to arrive, we've started buying things to make the apartment work better for us. I did go out and get an electric kettle (red, of course!) and have made tea a few times, but it's usually too hot to drink tea. Yesterday we even got a descaling kit for the Nespresso machine... Barcelona has very hard water, we're told. We have a new favorite store - Leroy Merlin . It's like Bed Bath and Beyond and Home Depot combined (and pared way down). It's less than a half mile from the apartment, but we have to walk through one of the most touristy parts of town to get there. Although really, it's getting back with all of our purchases that's the hard part! I've been trying to find a spice rack, but I gave up and bought a little wooden box at LM to keep my spices in - it'll do for now. I've found a few "standard" spices in different grocery stores - on...
