寒かったのでサクッとランチを済ませて家の中に戻ってちょっと何かしていたら、夫が「こんなの見つけた！」と箱を持ってきました。箱には、「Dish」と書かれていました。まだ見つかっていないお皿類や茶器やキッチン関係のものが色々あったので喜んだのもつかの間、思っていたよりすごい数の箱が見つかって２５箱くらいもありました。あらら〜。そういえば、リノベーションが始まるというときに、収納するところがないので開けずにキッチンに積んでいた箱を、前の住人の方がお庭に作っている本の保管庫の中に入るだけ夫が入れてくれたのでした。

As it got a bit cold after our lunch, I came back into the house and was doing something, when my husband came and said “Guess what I found!”.  He’d found some boxes in the garden shed that said “dishes” on them.  We had been wondering where were many of our dishes and kitchen stuff that we hadn’t found.  Now we remember my husband moved the boxes from the kitchen to the storage in the garden shed (the previous owner of the house had a storage built in there specially for his books) before we left for the renovation because there was some room (we did ask our movers to put the boxes of books in there), but we didn’t realise how many.  There were about 25 boxes!  We opened about 15 of them today and left the rest for tomorrow as we ran out of time and energy.

ということで、今日はお茶の時間も取れず１５箱ほどあけました。あとは、明日。それにしても、出てきた食器、いれるところがありません。ガレージをリノベーションしたら溢れた食器などを入れておけるようなパントリーを作ってもらう予定ですが、それもいつになるやらわかりませんしね〜。やれ、やれ、

I don’t know where we are going to store all these dishes and kitchen stuff, though.  We were going to have a pantry, where we can put some overflow dishes and kitchen stuff in the craft room once the garage is renovated, but it looks like it won’t happen any time soon.  Oh dear….!
