I have some teenage kids and young adults that think they are too busy to walk a few more steps to properly take care of dirty dishes, towels, and just about everything else. Today I have extra work.
Breakfast time, what is on the plate this morning...
~ two farm eggs and organic toast. Oh, and coffee. I wanted dandelion greens/potato/pepper hash, but didn't have the extra time. Maybe tomorrow.
On today's to-do list. . .in no particular order. . .
-put steel cut oats in the crock pot
-sweep floors
-clean entire kitchen, counters, tables (another leftover mess from the kids)
-load and run dishwasher (another leftover kid chore)
-scrub all animal watering units
-put snow boots in storage
-beautify herb garden as much as I can today
-make homemade croutons
-put up rain barrels
....and then some....
