Not a typical day


This morning I took the girls to Oak Brook so E could get her hair cut at Mario Tricoci. Above is the "before" picture and below is the "after" photo:


And we came home to this:


Andy said the faucet was leaking (apparently he noticed it a few days ago) and while he was moving the faucet it broke off. So now we have to go to a home improvement store. The kids had been wanting to go to Mitsuwa so we shopped there for a while before leaving B, L and Mayu to get some lunch while we went to Lowe's to look for a new faucet.


They both ordered curry. The wait was about 45 minutes! They both agreed, though, that it was delicious and tasted like it does in Japan.


It was fun to watch Mayu go up and down the store aisles and see things she recognized from home. She and L each got a cake that they're bringing to different classes for a Thanksgiving dinner Tuesday at school. L's is for Japanese class; Mayu's is for her English class which has a lot of international students in it. They're supposed to bring something to share from their home country so that should be quite an interesting meal.


When we got home Andy started replacing the faucet. Took him about an hour. And now ...


... we have a new faucet.
