Spicy

One on the many organizational accomplishments of the weekend is this new magnetic spice rack. I know, the whole magnetic spice tin thing isn’t news by any means. Maybe even a little played out. But it’s still genius. We put them up on the side of our fridge. I wasn’t going to label them because I always think I can tell the difference between oregano and basil (which, due to many years of not having a sense of smell, I always get mixed up). And of course there are times when I end up throwing curry into my greek salad. Well, one time anyway.
So I designed these little labels with some futura fontage (futura is currently my favorite font - I used it on my etsy banner too).
This reminds me - our new filing cabinet is in need of some file labels. Is it sad that I’m really excited about that? We cleaned out the office/guest room this weekend. Both of us had boxes and boxes of things that we have been storing at our parents’ houses and now that we’re settling down were forced to take back. Boxes and boxes. And Ryan has approximately one million canvases.
We had just collapsed from exhaustion and were sitting, enjoying the clean result, when Dan called and said he’s coming to visit. Good timing! We’ve got a functional guest room and, now, a guest for the room.
Last year Dan came at the end of March and we all ended up jumping in the lake. It’s still really cold so I’m hoping he doesn’t make us do that again.

Britt McMaster is addicted to cucumbers. She and her husband, Ryan, live and work in a tiny apartment in downtown Vancouver, BC. Both Ryan and Britt love to write lists of all their ideas on action sheets, and they have pages and pages. They write especially quickly after they've each had a dry cappuccino or two. Most of those fanciful ideas will stay on paper, but Cucumbersome is Britt's platform to try some out.
