Too Much Time on Our Hands

HANDIWORK: With too much at-home time on our hands, we finally got around to refinishing the hand chair we found at a thrift shop awhile back.

It had two layers of paint (brown and then green) over its original plastic.
We sanded it down to its original tomato soup red. That took awhile.
 After that, the hand got a couple of coats of a shimmery silver primer-and-paint. 
The end result (up top) is a big improvement. 

IN OTHER NEWS: Today meant more construction work on the pantry (we've actually started putting the sheathing up over the studs), and another batch of sauerkraut. The jar on the left is about a week into the process. The one on the right is front today, with a nice, really green head of cabbage.
Below is what Japanese class looked like today. CJ will be back at it for real (as in college) next week. Japanese III - that ought to be quite a challenge!
