Farmer's market = carrots for Thanksgiving! Bingo! |
Third, I'm baking again (I guess the above gave that away, but anyway)!!
BREAD!!! Bread, at least weekly. Therapeutic and delicious. A pretty sure sign I am beginning to move out of post partum ah-my-life-is-a-wreck-what-am-I-doing-and-why-does-no-one-have-clean-underwear slump. Although I think my spiffy new laundry routine is totally thebomb.com and it does a good job keeping me on task. It's so great to just knead dough. Idk. I just find that extremely soothing.
Fourth, we have a visitor tomorrow!!! Yay!!! Jonah's godmother and we are pumped! My to-do is obnoxious and if I nail it, it will be awesome. If not, it will still be an awesome day.
On the agenda tomorrow are sugar cookies, pie crusts, pecan pies, a pot pie for supper, and lots of chopping and slicing veggies in advance for our cozy Thanksgiving meal at home. Yes, I'm crazy. Whatever.
Fifth, I scored BIG at the grocery. Thank you Lord. Spare ribs for...(drumroll)...49cents per lb!!!! Markdown for a roughed-up package? Oh yes thank you!!!! Those puppies are fast asleep in our freezer!

Sixth, have you read A Knotted Life? Great blog! Great humor! Bonnie is a hoot and she is totally not trying to impress or belittle any momma out there. That rocks. Check it out!
And there were potatoes too! Roasted veggies on the Thanksgiving menu! |
Yeast Bread Rolls! Tried making them and can I say 1. Easy peasy 2. Delicious
Yeast bread rolls...A-mazing! (In the freezer for our...you guessed it! ...Thanksgiving menu! |
Ninth, I'm totally out of control and loving it! hahaha! I LOVE my babies but co-sleeping part-time is working best for us. Part-time = Jo starts off in the Moses basket next to us and ends up in bed like um, every night. But the sleep I get on my own in great. And if I'm missing my little buddy, I just reach on over, scoop him up and plop that chunky 15lb 9 oz boy next to me! He is so chunky and cute! So it's mostly full-time but it's great!
Really, I'm obsessed with these carrots. Orange, yellow, white, and deep red. Gorgeous. |
"Hold you baby! Hold you baby" Rita, you're amazing. I love you. |
I was just informed today that tomorrow I will be making a sweet potato pie from scratch. Clearly I am not nearly as prepared as you!
ReplyDeleteThose carrots are gorgeous. You should post pictures of them daily.
You've got that! Although I have no idea where to start. Do you bake them 1st? Sounds way hardcore!
DeleteI totally agree. That would be amazing. God is so cool. Multi-colored carrots? The guy IS creativity. Awesome.
I second that those carrots are amazing! Such rich colors!
