Despite the challenge, we are eating quite well. For dinner tonight I made chicken breasts in Parisian wine sauce, glazed carrots, mashed potato casserole and a green salad. I sautéed the boneless chicken breasts (seasoned with garlic salt, pepper, Creole seasoning and Herbs de Provence) in a combination of olive oil and butter. When nearly…
Day Four…
My challenge is going well and I’m discovering all sorts of stuff in my freezer. Today I put some boneless beef ribs in the crockpot along with 1/2 an onion and some homemade bbq sauce: Beam Me Up BBQ Sauceketchupmustardliquid smokeworchestershire saucegarlic saucePickapeppa saucea little Jim Beam I had a meeting tonight right at dinner…
Day Three…
I ended up not even going to town for choir tonight because David was returning from his business trip and I wanted to be home. He ate on his way home from the airport and Chris and I did our own thing. I had some leftover rice from Monday night so I put some grated…
Day Two…

Buy Nothing Challenge…
Or very little, anyway. David was paying bills yesterday before leaving on his business trip and I offered to forgo my bi-weekly household allowance to help cover Christmas charges on the credit card. He would never have asked me to do so and I had to insist. I have $102 and a bunch of change…
Doh! A deer…
I wouldn’t be surprised to see this sort of thing around here: see more pwn and owned pictures
Menu Plan Monday…
Monday: homemade vegetable and ham soup cornbread Tuesday: omelets English muffins fruit smoothies Wednesday: Choir rehearsal night so everyone is on their own Thursday: tacos refried beans salad Friday: jambalaya homemade potato salad French bread bread pudding with whiskey sauce
Let the organizing begin!
This is one of the closets in our exercise room. I store all our gift wrapping supplies, boxes and extra gifts here (the top shelf has the satellite box and some of David’s stuff that I don’t mess with). It was all neat and organized at one time but over the past year has drifted…
