Loading the dishwasher hurts me so. I have been washing dishes about every three days. Yes, I allow them to sit in the sink. But, now, I have both sides of the sink to use, so I still have a side to use everyday. This may seem lazy to you, but I don't care. I got them all loaded in one go, but could not bend one more time to put the capsule in the door.
I folded clothes, put them away, and ate lunch. That is it so far. The rest of the day will be devoted to:
freezing bags of meatballs, meal-size portions--16 meatballs each.
I need to cook 4 lbs of chicken thighs after marinating them in Italian dressing.
Cook cabbage and something else to go with the chicken.
Take tops off a gallon of strawberries frozen whole and given to me this last winter. I would not have left the tops on, but they were a gift.
I am going to make a strawberry poke cake. Tommy thinks it sounds gross. But, he will love it. Who does not like jello poured on cake? I mean, it is 75F outdoors! So, the cold cake will be great. My older daughter loved this cake. But, I mentioned it several years ago and she thought it sounded gross. She just does not remember.
There is a nail just below the light fixture in the back bedroom where I go to store food. I keep catching my hand on it, so I spied a hammer and carried it to the door.
Hang wet clothes--panties and nightgowns.
Water tulips.
I bought a shamrock to hang on the front door. Today, I am going to make a pattern to have more cut from thin wood. I told Tommy how I could afford such things once upon a time. I would take something and make a pattern, have the item cut, and sell it. I may not sell the new ones since I don't have the market I had then.
The urge to sunbathe is overtaking me. Of course, I will fight this urge! It is so beautiful out today. Yesterday, there was not one cloud in the sky. Today, I have not checked. We will go out in about 30 minutes, so will see then.
I have another two packages of meats that really need to be cooked tonight. We will see.
The money I spent yesterday on food was all for stock-up at low prices. I found Stovetop stuffing for $1, so bought two.
Have you ever had a strawberry poke cake? Any other kind of poke cake?
