weekend tiling

first wall of the basement bathroom shower

almost ran out of pennies and dimes

hennie and mette helped me with the backsplash behind the stove. and they actually did help me. we created a kind of bucket brigade of labor: mette sorting pennies out of the change jar and replenishing the pile, and hennie retrieving tiles and handing them to me as I set them. They both took turns buttering tiles. Hege was out at the time, and having them there actually sped me up significantly.
