• Happy Homemaker Monday – September 7

  On my bedside table: Same book as last week. 

  I tend to read a book and then I have to take a break.   There is something about me that can’t hop from one authors style to another quickly… if I am reading a series, I can jump right to the next book, but not when I change writing styles.  Weird.

  On my tv: College Road Trip (netflix).  Haven’t started it yet, but I need to… I’m thinking of axing the NF for a while.
  
  On my menu for tonight: Sweet and Sour Meatballs w/ rice.
  
  On my to-do list: Sell my house, buy this house (today!) and move. 
  
  New recipe I tried last week: Turkey burgers.  Technically turkey burgers aren’t new, but how I cooked them (in the Foreman grill is).  Crispy on both sides, the family wants me to make them that way from now on.   

  In my craft basket: Dust bunnies… I haven’t done a thing!

  Looking forward to: New walking/jogging shoes.  Some day.  Mine are holding up, but they are 4 years old… and I think its time to get a bit more spring in my step.

  Homemaking tip of the week: Have 3 – 4 designated baskets or hampers for laundry and have your family sort the colors by putting them in the right hamper (if your kids are old enough). 

  My baskets are 1) whites, 2) towels, 3) lights, 4) darks.  

  Not having to sort the clothes is a big time saver. 

  Favorite blog of the week: Sew Ritzy Titzy

  Favorite photo of the week:

   

  Lesson learned from the past few days: A Momma’s heart that feels the same.

  On my prayer list: Regina (go, read, pray.)

  Devotions, scriptures, or quotes:

  Surely he took up our infirmities
  and carried our sorrows…
                       Is 53:4
