One of my April goals was to sew these 15 pairs of sleeping shorts. I did finish them and they came in very handy.
Our son in law had to go to Washington D.C. for work, it was a 5 day trip over a weekend and our daughter was able to go too.
Their 3 children didn’t go. They have 2 other sets of grandparents who helped with them and we had them for 3 overnight stays.
They children loved picking out their shirts and shorts at bedtime and I didn’t have to fiddle with matching them all up.

These 3 love fruit so we made 2 fruit trays before they got here. These made meal time so easy- I just needed to add a main course and vegetable.
For one meal when their great grandparents also joined us, I baked a simple layer cake. It was a big hit.
Cake makes a meal more like a party.

More Kitchen doings——-

A sandwich box and as soon as I make it, my husband made himself a sandwich.

This supper started out as a head of cabbage, some leftover baked potatoes and smoked pork from the freezer.

It’s not a pretty meal but it was delicious- stir fried cabbage, hash browns and pork.

This meal was Salmon patties, sautéed fresh spinach and baked sweet potato cubes.


We’ve ate one watermelon this spring and it was so good - it was a seedless one from Aldi. I’ve since bought a second one and I hope it’s the same.

My son and I went to 3 rummage sales early this morning. We bought most of this at a church sale, it was so organized and priced low.

He got the stool for $5 and the cow painting for .25

At a different sale, I got the 3 big things- $3 scooter, $5 shopping buggy, $5 riding toy and the .25 tool box was at the church sale.
Look how much the tiger riding toy sells for on Amazon 😳

These metal kitchen things are mostly for sandbox toys. Our sweet puppy has been chewing on the plastic sandbox toys but I don’t think he can chew up these. Most of them were .05 each except the 2 bigger pans were .50

The square is a Pampered Chef stoneware baking dish .50

I think the Oneida pottery clover canister will look for St. Patrick’s Day.

More miscellaneous

And more- the box of beads has so many beads in it.

I’ve looked at the Operation game but it may be a dud- the parts are so so tiny.

The basket and 2 big planters were .75 each

I hope all of you are fine and that you liked seeing what I’ve been sewing, cooking and buying.
