Happy Homemaker Monday

Sunday I had some hot banana peppers a jalapenos to deal with, so I canned a batch of ....





Hot Banana Pepper Relish (Called Pepper Relish at Food.com online).

While the canner boiled away, I started on my mound of dishes I created. 



I also baked a breakfast casserole as our grab-n-go breakfast this week. A new recipe.  If it's good, I'll let you all know.

We got a good load of rain Sunday morning.  So very thankful for that too.


Today I am joining Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom.  


The weather outside is. . .
83°F/53°F  92% Humidity.


How I am feeling this morning . . .
Stressed. I lost two hens last night.  Apparently the newbies can fly very high.  With help we found them and put them back in the coop, but now we have to rethink the fence, put up tall posts, cover the top, and add a larger door.  I'm so done to be honest.


On my mind . . .
I have to call the dentist this morning.  A crown fell off.  Gonna be interesting now that appointments are limited.  I'm not a fan of mask wearing either.  Don't get me started on that.  I mean I touch mine a ton during one bike ride and stuff it in my purse several times, so how is that sanitary?  I watched a person drop theirs on the floor (inside of the mask fell on the floor), pick it up and put it back on his face.  The mask wearing isn't about the virus (just my opinion). It's part of the plan to keep economy from getting better (putting fear in people so they go out less, spend less), so America will blame the President, and keep him from being re-elected.  Most likely closing the bars at 10pm and causing them to lose 4 hours of business is part of that same plan?  Well, the caption did say "on my mind" so off my soapbox.


On the breakfast plate . . .

The breakfast casserole I made.


On my reading pile . . .
I haven't really been in the mood to read.


On my TV . . .
Not much.

From the camera . . .
The moon the other morning.


Chore I am not looking forward to this week . . .
Figuring out how to re-do the chicken coop.


To relax this week I will . . .
Have an adult drink.  Seriously.  Get a motorcycle ride one day.  Maybe two days.  We'll see.


Something I want to share . . .
I finally got new yarn colors for the jar openers.  They are posted for sale at Rooster's Crow Farm.  


On my prayer list . . .
