This post is far from perfect - I did it on the iPad with the blogger app that has a mind of it's own 😫
hello everyone
Yesterday, I spent about an hour cooking 2 dishes that will feed us several times.
I made a batch of cheeseburger soup where I loosely followed 2 recipes.
The other was a batch of Dirt E Rice, which is a Trim Healthy Mama diet recipe, and we just like the way it tastes.
I used a pound and half package of lean ground beef and divided it for the 2 recipes. They both use basic ingredients, what you see in the photo as well as bell pepper and sage in the rice dish, and milk and cheese in the soup.
After - yes we have lots of silverware - and it gets used when we have a big family gathering. I happily use paper plates then but we all prefer real flatware.
They were quick to sew up and I'll show the finished blankets tomorrow. Right now they are in the washer,

I know some people turn up there noses at leftovers but we really like have homemade food that we can reheat and enjoy at our convenience.
Wendi at My Heart Is Always Home has been doing some Tackle It Tuesday projects where she cleans and organizes small areas in her home. Earlier this week I straightened up our extra pantry.
Today I worked on our silver ware drawer.
Before and it is just crazy how many crumbs were hiding in there 😱
I also worked on making 3 reversible fleece blankets from the Joann remnants.
Our big table was a nice surface to spread out the fabrics and trim them.
See the plastic sack? My sewing tip is to keep a sack handy for corralling all the unusable scraps as you work and then just throw it all away
