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. I'm going to plug in the tree today and tomorrow and enjoy it one last time. (I am keeping up my travel ornament tree for another week or so since it's small. Hee hee) Have fun with the little and good luck on WW! It was our first week back to it and it's like "why isn't the dough weight gone yet?" LOL

  3. Back to work today. Ugh. I'm not ready! I've been reading all of your posts, but on my Chromebook and since I sign in there on a different account than I do here I can't post from there. I'm not ignoring you. :) I'm sorry your holiday season reinforced your choice to go out of town next Christmas. The holidays here were pretty good here. I'm really sorry you had to deal with drunk and inappropriate family members.

    I hope you get some relaxing time in this weekend. I have some housework to do because I've been lazy the last couple days and I have a couple recipes to batch cook and freeze.

    1. I'm sure that's the hardest part about your profession, you feel just as bummed as the kids do when break is over! LOL No worries on not being able to comment. So glad to hear your holidays were good! Ooh, feel free to share what you're cooking! I was just thinking the other day I wanted to do some batch cooking myself.

  4. Today I had a fantastic meeting, then went to the burbs to have lunch with a friend (awesome food!). Then came home, took a nap, and then we brought in a big table from the garage up to the spare room to make room for the snow blower, which we picked up yesterday after work. That table works nicely for to fold clothes to give away so I worked in the spare room too. Tomorrow is grocery shopping if the snow isn't too bad, then lots of laundry. Scintillating stuff, I tell ya. lol
