It's Friday Already


Today is Friday, September 10, 2010. The weather has still been hot and humid. No storms so far this week. They are still calling for them the rest of the week. Very foggy this morning, going to wait to start laundry until I think I know what the weather is going to do for sure.

This week has been a very short one to say the least. George has to work tomorrow so that will give me an extra day to do what I need to get done. Finished two necklaces this week and got one listed, so I will get the other one listed today. This is the plan any way. Have decided that I am not going to run to town today. Don't have to do anything but get groceries and I can do that tomorrow morning before the rest of the world gets moving around.

The little white hen started laying on Wednesday! We are now at five eggs a day, I am loving it! I am going to have to start thinking about keeping them warm in a few months. If this winter is anything like last winter we are going to have to close up the sides and get some heat lamps for them.

Tomorrow I bake the sourdough bread that I used a really simple starter recipe for. We shall see how well it turns out. Really hoping that this works, three loaves of fresh bread every three to five days. Made a batch of chocolate chip cookies Wednesday night, when I woke up the next morning, they were all gone. So looking forward to making candy. Will probably start making it the end of next month. Might even make some fruit cake, the recipe is easy and believe it or not, it is really good. I know most fruit cake is really bad.....

So looking forward to Fall getting here, the colors, the cooler temperatures, opening up the house and that energizing feeling. Not looking forward to winter, last winter was so cold, I didn't even want to think about going outside.

Wishing everyone a happy, healthy, productive weekend!

Remember yesterday, dream about tomorrow, but live today. ~Brightest Blessings~

  2. Those necklasses are so lovely. I used to love making them, but my eyesight doesn't allow the intricate work anymore. I love your tales of your chickens...and of course, the rooster. I feel like I know them all having followed them since your first got them.

  4. I ♥ the necklace, and wish I could bake. ~*sigh*~ Homemade chocolate chip cookies sound oh so delightful right about now. I welcome Autumn as well, but not the dear winter. Happy Friday dear friend.
