We had wonderful weather over the weekend, other than thunderstorms Sunday morning. I've started to do the plant "shuffle" so they are acclimated to the outdoors prior to planting in the garden. We are still working on garden fencing, and fixing the truck.
I picked a handful of asparagus, and we should be enjoying it in a few more days for dinner.
Today I am joining Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom.
The weather . . .
Cloudy, 60's and more rain. They are predicting rain all weekend, so if I want peas planted, I need to do it between this rain and the weekend rain (or not at all). It's getting late for peas here.
As I look outside my window . . .
It's cloudy, and looks like rain.
Right now I am . . .
Making a second pot of coffee.
Thinking and pondering . . .
Just a lot going on between weather and garden.
How I am feeling . . .
Tired, but so glad I did a super tidy/clean up before we left for the weekend.
On the breakfast plate . . .
Not sure yet. I have to make it ha ha!
What I am wearing . . .
Jammies. Just starting out my morning right now.
On my reading pile . . .
I'm still reading Atomic Habits. By the way, it's not a good book to take on a car ride, ha ha! I going to have to start another book and rotate them. This book is good, but it's as interesting as a good fiction book.
On my TV . . .
A Man Called Otto
On the menu . . .
I completely forgot about planning a menu this week!
-Crock pot pork chops, rice or quinoa, and roasted brussel sprouts or asparagus from the garden
-walleye or perch, homemade fries
-leftovers
Looking around the house . . .
It's getting there. I should have the upstairs larger room flooring painted by the end of the week. Downstairs is looking much better. I still have a few boxes to sort, and the truck is still full of donations to deliver. I need to start on the front porch again soon. We purchased flowers for the hanging baskets, and they need put up yet.
On the to-do list . . .
-bake a breakfast for a few days
-make egg salad
-set plants out today
-put last of the smaller fencing around asparagus and toss in straw
What I am creating . . .
Still working on this blanket. It's in a project basket for now. In case you missed the post, you can find the pattern links for this: HERE.
Simple pleasure. . .
Painting my toenails with nail polish. I actually bought a pair of flip-flop slippers for this summer too. I don't do this often, so when I do, it is a treat (using chemical free polish).
From the camera . . .
The earrings are lovely. Such a pretty green. The verses you shared are also a wonderful encouragement for the start of a new week. Have a lovely week.
ReplyDeleteElisha, thank you!
ReplyDeleteI would love some of your fresh asparagus. 😍 have a great week
ReplyDeleteThose earrings are beautiful! What's your favorite way to cook quinoa and what do you typically serve with it?
ReplyDeleteWas great to read your post and follow your renovating adventures. Enjoy your week
ReplyDeleteI picked up Atomic Habits awhile back and haven't gotten around to reading it yet! I will have to pick it up! I love your waterfall photo! I love to go on easy hikes! I hope you have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteLisa, fresh homegrown is the best.
ReplyDeleteJoanna, I like to cook my quinoa with broth vs. water, and sometimes we add garlic or other herbs too.
ReplyDeleteThank you Luludou
ReplyDeleteStacy, I have been trying to read a few pages a day, but garden season is about to kick in here. I am hoping to finish the book soon.
