Spent a good portion of the week in the kitchen. If I have the ambition sometime I'll post a list of the dishes and recipes that I used, but it was: meatloaf, sushi, turkey, soup, breads, hummus and more. Still have leftovers in the fridge but they have been disappearing for lunches.
New mac mini came in last week as well, got it all hooked up and did the machine migration via firewire and target disk mode. After re-installing a few drivers that weren't Universal Binaries, it is acting like the old one. Well, except that it is much, much faster. Doing the same things I was doing before puts the load average at about .21 instead of 3.x-4.x. Haven't tried load testing it yet, been too busy doing other things to sit at the computer.
This weekend we switched gears a bit and haven't been spending as much time in the kitchen, but working more around the house. We hauled 2 more truckloads over to the studio and unpacked a bunch of it, freeing up the tubs. Have a truckload (14 kitchen garbage bags, so far) of clothes and things for st. vinnies, and more yet to sort through. I swapped out the medicine cabinet downstairs, still need to wire in the lights. I reinforced the bottoms of the dresser drawers in the bedroom. Brad nails in soft thin plywood don't hold to well, but 3/4" staples in maple sandwiching the plywood to the box helps a bit. Have my clothes sorted through and mostly put back into the closet.
Later tonight or tomorrow I'm going to try and go through the front coat closet and thin it of stuff to add to the truckload.
