BEDA #19 To Do list and Replies

Sorry about no blog yesterday.  We were away from home much of the day. 

Today I’m at home and working my way through  new To-Do list. 

So far,  I’m on load #5 of laundry and have a couple more after these.  Why so much?  Bedding, towels to dry off Ducky after his at home bath, grands here over the weekend and then just our regular clothes and linens. 

I’m not planning any meals for a few days, until we use the yummy leftovers from the weekend.  

Next I’m going to answer some of your comment questions.  

The electric receptacle in that cabinet is for the stove vent hood.  

About this cookbook- it’s fun to read but after reading it,  I would not re-buy it.  Most the recipes are much heavier than I normally prepare- meaning I think she uses lots of butter and heavy additions.  

About the Salad Shooter,  this is my 3rd salad shooter.  I got my first one when my children were young.  

The first one was the small one and my second one was the bigger model.  I currently have the small one.  

If I wear this one out,  I will replace it with the bigger one.  

I use it mostly for grating carrots and cheese and also for slicing potatos and shredding cabbage for cole slaw.  

The prices I see on Amazon today  seem really high -if you don’t know,  Amazon prices fluctuate almost daily.  

I’ve seen salad shooters on EBay and Mercari. Yard sale season will be starting and I expect they can be found at some sales too.  

Thank you for all the YouTube channel suggestions.  I’ll be looking them all up. 

And I plan to link them a post here soon.  

I watch YouTube mostly when I ride a stationary bike or folding laundry and sometimes while cooking.

BEDA #17 Saturday with some grands

Hello everyone 

I made pancakes as requested and used a recipe by Joanna Gaines 

They were good.  I cut back the butter from 10 tablespoons to 8 tablespoons- which is still a lot of butter for a recipe this size.  

The kids worked jigsaw puzzles,  made Perler bead creations and Lego creations 

I read aloud this library book and it’s such a good book.  It’s a true story about a family with 12 sons who made their own baseball team,  

I enjoyed the old-fashioned style of the drawings 

If you know some young baseball fans,  I think they would like this book as much as we did.  

Lunch was frozen pizzas and this is our favorite frozen pizza-  they are deep dish with lots of toppings,  they cook in their own pan so there is no mess in the oven. 

I buy them at Walmart and they come in several flavors 

  

Then supper was cube steaks, mashed potatos, rolls, carrots and strawberries.  

That’s the highlights of our day

Hope you’ve all had a nice Saturday 

❤️ Rhonda
