That New/Used House Smell

After weathering some shady business dealings by the owner, paying a bit more than we originally intended, and polishing off a bottle of Pepto, Maria and I have taken the plunge — we bought a house. I may be counting chickens before they’re hatched since we don’t close until May 25, but we’re excited nonetheless. It’s a great little bungalow that was built around 1900. I’ll post some pictures soon, but in the meanwhile, in honor of the new home we just bought, summer, and just for the heck of it, here is a little mix for you to enjoy as the temperatures rise:
