ready for next week

Hello everyone

I wrote out a new to do list for next week.

I’ve tried a couple other methods but this hand written list on a clipboard works best for me.

But I’m 100% certain I won’t accomplish all of it.

Some of the grands spent Friday night here so I cooked pancakes and sausage for breakfast.

This recipe is from my Uncle Jarvis. He was WWII Marine, father of 6 and a scout master.

I served these pancakes to my children when they were growing up, probably at least once a week.

I think the brown sugar and vanilla are what makes these pancakes taste so good.

Uncle Jarvis said to use oil but I used melted butter.

The grandsons wanted chocolate chips on theirs and plenty of butter.

It was good to go church in person this morning. Sitting a pew just was not doable when my husband’s back was so bad.

I’m thankful our church livestreams services but being there in person is just special.

Hope you all have had a good weekend and are ready for Monday

❤️ Rhonda

Friday things

hello everyone

today has been a mostly quiet, rainy day.

I baked a batch of sandwich buns and an angel food cake- I used a Betty Crocker cake mix and it is delicious

My buns recipes are in an old post I did in 2014

I picked up 3 of grands after school. One of them has a birthday soon. He has a friend with a 3D printer who gifted him this very nice turtle and shark.

The turtle’s back comes off and can hold some little trinkets and his legs move. The shark is flexible.

They are really nice quality. I’ve heard of 3D printers but don’t know anything about them. I can’t imagine owning one but I do like these little doo-dads.

We are having stormy weather and I’ve been keeping my purse, shoes and flashlight by the back door just in case we need head to our storm shelter in a hurry.

I told my grands why and to put their shoes there too,
