The hot pepper seeds have arrived, and are now started in seed trays. I am still waiting on my carrot seeds (back ordered for some reason). I have limited space to start seeds, hence why I have asked for a greenhouse in the future, but these two are new to the garden. The Datil are similar to a habanero, but more of a "sweet" taste, according to my research. Seeds for Datil were sent free too.
Replacement part has been ordered for our stove. I will update on that once we see if that was the issue. My husband almost burned down the stove Sunday at breakfast. He forgot and used the burner. I have removed the knob, so neither of us use that burner until the part arrives.
I am joining Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom today.I will link up when she posts.
The weather . . .
Warmer that usual, and possibly in the lower 60's mid-week (crazy).
As I look outside my window . . .
It's still pitch dark.
Right now I am . . .
Sipping coffee, deciding on what to bake for breakfast today.
Thinking and pondering . . .
Trying to find a way to sell off my crochet/knit, craft inventory. I have more than I thought. I have 16 sets of crocheted pot holder sets alone. I am just trying to make more room upstairs.
On my bedside table . . .
I cleaned it off! Just my clock, photos, water and throat lozenges (yeah, still dealing with that).
On my TV . . .
The Secret: Dare to Dream
Listening to . . .
80's
On the lunch plate . . .
-have no idea yet
On the dinner plate . . .
Four beans and sausage (crock pot meal)
On the menu . . .
-Four beans and sausage, recipe is: HERE
-Chicken, veggie sheet pan dinner
-leftovers
On my reading pile . . .
Nothing this week.
On the To-Do List. . .
-check paypal, order pet urine solution (will update if it works on the wood floors when it arrives). They only take paypal, so it has delayed cleaning upstairs floors
-laundry
-make a breakfast, do dishes
-clean roosts
-run dishwasher
-work on another box of paperwork left from last room move
-make a phone call (if my voice is up to it)
-pay bills
Plans for this week . . .
Start cleaning up the mess we left in the hallway downstairs. The shoe/boot pile has a mess of tools, gloves and what not. It's been driving me nuts. If successful, I may be painting trim in that hallway. Plant Swiss Chard indoors.
What I am sewing, knitting, crocheting or creating. . .
I was cleaning clutter, and got distracted by leftover balls of yarn. There is a pile of it at the base of the stairs to go back up now. Any, I sat at the computer and whipped up one of these. I have no idea why, other than I was curious and it was over loaded cuteness!
I noticed that when I sew in the first black line, then go over to start a second (up and down), you can see the black yarn behind it. I may work up another and work on hiding more of that, but they turn out super cute just using what ever worsted weight yarn I had (her suggestion of yarn does look better). I used a smaller hook for the hearts. The link again for the pattern is: HERE.
Yes, I got distracted, but it was a nice break. I got back to work, and then later found more unfinished projects.
I worked a bit on this scarf, while my blanket continued to air dry (see story on that in Saturday's post, ha ha!). To stay on task, I have a dedicated bin for "unfinished" projects. I am working on balancing declutter, repairs, renovations etc with crochet time.
My simple pleasure . . .
I'm stumped on this one today. Maybe I need more coffee to think this morning, ha ha!
I got one now....going to the library for random books. I have not been to the library since Feb. 2020.
Looking around the house . . .
I had good intentions on clearing another area of the house, but we sort of took a break from stuff on Sunday.
From the camera. . .
I finally looked over my items I brought back home from the museum gift shop. It's no wonder nothing was selling this year. They marked up the prices way too high. Sigh.
Bible Verse, Devotional . . .
Continued prayers for our friend Hope and her family, as she lost her husband.

We are probably still going to be here for the summer - but we are going to do a container garden. I bought a couple of grow bags - we are going to do some potatoes. Do you have a recipe for the four beans and sausage? Sounds delicious. We try to do a bean meal at least once a week.
R's Rue, I may go next week after I get things cleaned up. Thanks.
Sherry, I linked the recipe in the blog post for you. It is very good! An all in one meal too.
Here is the link as well, https://pioneerwomanatheart.blogspot.com/2019/01/randomness-four-beans-and-sausage.html
Super late in visiting this week! Oh, I love going to the library as well. I missed it so much when it was closed during the Pandemic. Hope you get a chance to visit soon. Have a wonderful weekend!
Jean, thanks for stopping in. Yes, I do miss going to the library.
