a 12 mile run and a summer sauna with odin!

a 12 mile run and a summer sauna with odin!

building a backyard sauna was an ace move, but after a long run and sitting in a 160°F sauna ( which is actually about 30°F lower than we typically have it at ), put a fork in me ’cause I’m done!

btw, you do know that a “wet” finnish sauna has to be pronounced sow-na even when you’re saying it to yourself? i hope you haven’t been embarrassing yourself all these years and calling it a saw-na.

when you want to make a cheesecake and it just happens to be national cheesecake day

Kris: “we should make a cheesecake today!” ( we haven’t made a cheesecake in a looooong time ).

Me: “did you know it’s national cheesecake day?”

Kris:”no! We should definitely make one then!” Sooooooo…

martha stewart’s classic cheesecake recipe turned out pretty good. it’s no pasture butter cheesecake but it’ll do!

a thought while preparing for tonight’s treehouse movie theater showing of the original ghostbusters.

between the treehouse movie theater, the finnish sauna ( building on left ), the fire pit, and The Girls ( chicken coop on right ), i bet when i finally build the hobbit house treehouse on top of the deck, it will have serious airbnb potential.

i think there are a lot of people who would like a weekend of treehouse movies, saunas and tending to The Girls with the freshest breakfast eggs you can imagine! just kidding. sort of.
