I've been getting up about 5-5:30am to stoke the fire. We woke up to 19°F. We will need to cut more wood this weekend. The repairs on the coop have been delayed due to the dark days, and how dark it is when Hubby gets off work. Repairs resume on the weekend as well.
I finally got around to canning some applesauce. It pretty much took most of my morning and afternoon. I bought 20# this year (I haven't canned applesauce in a few years now). Remaining apples will be in the cooler garage. I may can another half-batch of applesauce too.
...and since I had apples, I put steel cut oats in the crocky for our next breakfast (cutting the brown sugar down this time). The apples and raisins add enough sweetness.
Guess what's on the menu this weekend? Crockpot "fried" apples with breakfast.
Hubby and I watched a good movie on Netflix the other night. It was pretty good too. It's call Falling INN love. While watching it, Hubby asked me "you need to be writing again." I agree, so I will carve time in my day for that again. Who knows, maybe I'll be bringing in some extra cash for our new coop fund? Anyway, the movie is good, don't let the title make you think it's just another love story. Once you watch it, you see why "writing" was brought up while watching it.
I have all the granny squares made for the scarf I'm gifting. I just have to crochet them all together now.
