Today is a cleaning day!

So far today I have brought the dirty laundry downstairs and started a load of wash. I cleaned the mirror in the upstairs hallway with glass wax, a nice toxic chemical that smells LOVELY (NOT!!) I usually use non-toxic or natural cleaners but the previous… Continue

Cooking Journal Entry #1 10/30/09

Ok so I am starting to keep a cooking journal of recipes I use and such. It is a written journal but I thought I would post it online and share too!!!

Tonight for dinner I made pork roast with corn on the cob and potatoes.
The pork roast ingredients were:
Pork roast (duh...)
onions
garlic pepper
cilantro
chicken broth

cooked it in the oven for 2hrs at 350degrees, it was a little dry, need to put more chicken broth next time!

Time to pick our next renovation project!

Well we finished the porch a while back but have not chosen another project yet! We did re-arrange a bit, putting the futon upstairs in what was the playroom and bringing the playroom downstairs into what was the den. Now I need to decide what to do next. Basically it is a choice between painting the bathroom downstairs or starting on the spare room upstairs to make it into a sewing room. The bathroom is the smaller of the 2 rooms so it would be easier but the spare room seems to be calling to m… Continue

I love reading about how people spend their days (referring to your list above)...

Anyway, your post on Melly talking was so relevant to me, since my son has started putting words to objects. It's such a fun time, and I never tire of hearing him chat on in that cute little voice. I'll probably be eating my words within the next few months though!

It is so hard to pick out a favorite part of Gone With the Wind. I think at the dance when Scarlett has been widowed and is dancing under the table is great though and then Rhett bids on her to dance with him and the crowd is in shock!
