books and ovens

I am reading this book that I think has a lot of good ideas on making a relationship work better. The title is The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work by John Gottman - not that we are having problems, but better to learn skills while there aren't huge problems. It has very concrete things to say, not so woo woo and it is more than just actively listening.

Yesterday we bought a toaster oven! Looks like we will be here awhile longer and not having an oven was so sad. Last night we had baked potato and chicken cooked in the oven. I am thinking of trying cookies! It is nice to have a break from boiled and fried and variations on that.
