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.)

I am all for the ongoing productivity push too. What else can we get into. I am glad I got the Christmas lights down off the house and boxed up for next year. I usually wait for a mild day but I am actually happy we have had more snow days lately so it was just fine taking things down in stages so I could warm up in between. Happy Friday everybody!
ReplyDeleteOf course I woke up today like "yeah...no." That walk around the cemetery took it out of me yesterday for some reason.
DeleteI am a long time member of the Procrastinators Club. When I finally accomplish something that's been niggling, wowza. I cleaned out and organized the freezer this week, because I KNEW there were chops in there, but where? Now everything has a place, and I know what we have, feels great. I swept and mopped, then made a perfect cup of pour over coffee...opened the cupboard to put the coffee filters away, and a jar of peanut butter jumped out, landed on my coffee, and dang it, why right after I mopped the floor?
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to see I'm not the only member of the club! You're giving me ideas with the freezer. I wonder what I would find in mine!? Awww, you poor nugget! That is exactly the kind of thing that would happen to me. Then you just kind of break the fourth wall of the camera that is shooting the show of your life and are like "really?"
DeleteJust finished grocery shopping, so now it's finishing up the two load of laundry that are left and continuing to pitch crap that I don't need or want anymore. Then it's work the rest of the weekend. Enjoy a nice productive weekend and some good walks outside!
ReplyDeleteHooray for groceries and laundry being taken care of! I need to follow your lead on pitching things but I feel like I'd pitch the whole house if I got in the right mood! I hope your work is much better than the previous 10 days and you can breathe a little better.
DeleteNo big plans this weekend. I might go see a movie this evening since my local theater just reopened and Id like to support them. Or I might just stay home because it'll be dark and cold and my couch will be soft and warm. Yesterday was my one Friday a month that I have to work so my weekend is already 1/3 shorter.
