Finally, we are getting a little dose of rain. This picture shows how crisp things are getting. I do water my flower pots-they’ve just dried so quickly. I moved them all so they can get the benefit of this morning free watering.
The backyard and old deck looks deceptively like an oasis of green. I hope the light rain lasts all morning and comes back tomorrow. I love a good rain shower anyway but this is a long overdue gift!
Saturday Schmatterings
I'm tacking on a Saturday Schmatterings mostly as a personal To Do list. I've loads to get accomplished today, and feel invigorated with the morning rain. I reconfigured the dishwasher and that plus a load of bath towels are in the dryer and dish towels in the washer are running now. I've put of grocery shopping long enough, so after I tackle the refrigerator, I'm off to shop. Here's what I must get done today;
- Clean refrigerator
- Stop at Dollar Tree for birthday cards
- Stop at local grocery store for raspberry pie filling and white chocolate chips (insurance as Aldi is spotty on some items)
- Grocery shopping at Aldi
- Put groceries away
- Bake Blueberry pie and Nothing Bundt CopyCat
- Clean Upstairs bathroom
- Fold and put away any laundry items
- Wrap birthday gifts
- Make bruschetta for ciabatta bread appetizers
- Make some sort of pasta salad for tomorrow-still deciding
- Do something with a large zucchini, grate or roast and 3 peppers
Added list-may or may not get done depending on how long I feel invigorated.
- Clean and purge the bakers rack in the kitchen
- Begin to tackle the gift wrap boxes/consolidate into one large bin repurposed from the office
- Get ahead on some blog posting
Easy peasy right? I hope your Saturday is as productive or more than I hope to be.
