My Favorite Products That Make My Life Easier

I'm sure you probably know from today to Friday (11th) is Prime Day.  If you remember my post about how I can keep this place up and running yearly, you know unfortunately Amazon is really the only way I can make that happen since I'm considered a 'mini' blogger.  My sassy thoughts doth not jibe with sponsors, my following is small (which I love actually) so Amazon affiliate links are the only way I can hit that target.   I will say that due to tariff pauses expiring at the end of day today, prices could go way up tomorrow (9th) so I would encourage you to buy today even though Prime Day doesn't end until the 11th.  I know I will be. I'm going to share products I love and if you check 'em out and buy them or anything on Amazon once you click through, it'll help me keep the place jumpin'.    Electric Spin Scrubber I can't begin to tell you the game changer this is especially for someone who isn't a clean freak.  The last thing my mind but mor...

What I'm Reading (and Eating) This Week #39

Howdy do all?  

(I like to write that because when the Mr. proofreads it, he reads it like Kevin McAlister's TalkBoy on slo-mo in Home Alone 2 making the reservation.  Watch, this will be the only time he doesn't.)  It's been another good week of meals around here.  

Sunday was the grilled cheese and tomato soup I showed Monday.  On Monday, we had a "quick microwave dinner."

That is 10 month old turkey from the Food Saver which was just as tasty and moist as the day I sealed it baby!  So glad I found my final packet.  Also nuked some russets in the microwave and made a quick batch of mashed potatoes and I snapped some green beans we picked up from the farm market the day before.  The Mr laughed and said "your idea of "throwing a microwave meal together" is different from most people, I'm sure.  Lucky me!"

On Tuesday, it had been a long day and the meal I planned on us making together wasn't in the cards so I threw together a BBQ chicken pita pizza with Brussels.




Wednesday, was another day of fighting everything and everyone for the Mr and he didn't feel well.  So, I made this Pasta with Pumpkin Sauce.  Perfect fall dish!


Crispy sage...fancy pants.

Last night we had five TJ's Beef Bolognese ravioli and a salad 




I gave the Mr the week off from cooking since he'd been killing himself with the kitchen sink flange replacement and dealing with computer issues.  

Lets get to...

  1. Got new wifi routers coming and I hope they work out for us cause I'm tired of dealing with internet issues. I plan to basically redo the network this weekend which will take some time but will hopefully stabilize things for us. Other than that, I got nothin'.

  2. It's been an okay week. It's a birthday/anniversary weekend so I'm looking forward to that. The only changes I see color wise right now are the cornfields that were planted early are starting to turn. We have lots of squirrels running around shucking the paper off of corn cobs and eating them in their little hands. It's been quite entertaining to watch. Have a great weekend!
