I did some baking last week because my in-laws were in town
Pecan pie from my mom's recipe- and the pecans were picked by us in the fall. Yes, it tastes as good as it looks!
Lemon pound cake muffins- an old Taste of Home magazine recipe
Bread baked in our Zojirushi machine- that machine has truly been a work horse.

My son has been doing meal prep- this is a bunch of chicken breasts and fajita beef he grilled. He bags and freezes it, then eats it during the month for lunch and supper.
He has also been making jar salads that he really likes.
2 kinds of oranges
A bag of microwave popcorn with a few white chcolate chips sprinkled on while still hot - Yum!
Cheese dip and tortilla chips
I won't spell it all out but after sales and coupons and ECBs, this was about $10 and I got back $15 ECB.
Can you guess what my husband and father in law are doing?
I used some of my Pyrex collection to serve it in.
Funny grandchild of the week
Braeden is watching PBSKids on an iPod.
I usually sit in this chair but I don't pose like Braeden.
I don't go to Walmart very often but I went this week needing 3 things I could only get there.
At the front of the store, there were 2 buggies full of Star Wars merchandise from the newest movie and EVERYTHING was 25 cents each. Lots of shoppers were digging in the baskets and I ended up with
9 sets of little boy pajamas - I still can't believe they were a quarter!
3 water bottles
2 Darth Vader soft balls
And a bunch of glow stick toys.
CVS -but this is too late for any of you to do these deals though
Children's School Valentines
Our daughter in law did these cute Valentines for Gavin in first grade. She got the book lights at Dollar Tree. They say - Valentine You brighten my day.m
These are some the Valentines that JJ got at his church preschool party. He wanted to eat the dinosaur gummies first and he made dinosaur sounds through the whole bag.
Ta-da!
There is this nook in the hall and after living here for 13 years, it dawned on me that a floor to ceiling bookcase would be great in that spot.
So now that husband is retired, he has time and energy to work on things like this.
It is attached to the walls and holds so many books!
It's 8 feet tall.
Children books are on the bottom 3 shelvesCookbooks are on the 4th
Bibles and adult fiction are on the top 4.
That's what's been on going at the If You Do Stuff home. We've been doing lots of stuff and I'll have more pictures for you all soon.
Happy Valentines Day everyone.
