What I'm Reading This Week #35

Howdy do and happy last Friday of August!  I hope you had a good week and if your weather was like ours, it was FINALLY under 93 degrees.  Don't get me wrong, I know sweater weather isn't here but it was nice to not have the AC working overtime (set to 76) starting at 11am every day!   It was nice to not walk out to water the garden and walk into a wall of humidity so I will take what I can get.    Speaking of which: With this 3" San Marzano , I shall be able to make enough sauce to cover 7.3 spaghetti noodles. 😒 Now let's get to: How to Stock Your Pantry for Quick & Easy Meals in Minutes   (Ooh, I need to crockpot some black beans for some sweet potato black bean burritos.)

  1. Happy Valentine's weekend everybody! I know cleaning doesn't sound romantic but it's looking like it will be too cold and snowy to want to go out too much so why not get some stuff done around the house and then we can just get cozy.

  2. I actually shouted "YES!" at the article about people not throwing around "panic attack". I have suffered with them for years and they are no joke!

    I think we will be doing a lot of cleaning as well. My mom comes into town next week and I haven't seen her since our wedding in November of 2013! I think we may try to see a movie during the day on Saturday depending on the crowds. Happy Valentine's Day!

  3. I came home today to a lovely dinner the hubs cooked for me and beautiful flowers, which was quite the surprise. I had been awake since 1:30am and was dragging after an uber-crappy day, and it felt so nice to just take it all in for an evening. I have a meeting tomorrow morning then errands and a hockey game tomorrow night downtown. It's going to be viciously cold (wind chills here 20 - 30 below zero tomorrow night), so I'm thinking Sunday will be indoors doing house chores that I've neglected the past couple of weeks. And I'm scheduling in a couple of long naps to boot! =o)
