I managed to get all the planting done, and once things start to fill out a bit I will post some photos.
No batch cooking this week, instead I have been busy using things up. I still have the rhubarb out to make into a slice. Decided against the pie as we had pie last weekend. No cake either as we just finished the chocolate cake I made yesterday. Slice sounds about perfect right now.
I think I will pull out some zucchini tomorrow and find something other than cake, or loaf to make. Actually some muffins sound pretty good and they can be used for breakfasts.
I helped at the hospital Mass on Wednesday. It only took a bit over the hour as I walked some of the residents back to the long term care area of the hospital. I did tell them I wouldn't be able to do every week, but would come whenever I could.
I sporadically worked on my monthly projects, but am not really getting as much done as I had hoped. There will be a few carry overs to next month.
Continued to walk every day this past week. Actually this time due to me extending the distance somewhat I have lost a few pounds. Now that makes me smile.
My regular 2 week shopping day is on Thursday of the upcoming week, but I think I will go on Wednesday as the store is having a great sale and the sale ends on that day. Probably head there right after helping with Mass. Really great meat sale so I just could be spending a bit more than usual this time around.
Off to get our supper warmed up (stew and buns).
Everybody have a wonderful evening.
God bless.
That's real nice of you to help out with the mass at the hospital.
ReplyDeleteI have some big grocery shopping to do next week too. Not looking forward to the prices. I've been shopping sales and am buying store brands.
It's always such a drag when we get our income once a month and then a day or so later, you start paying the bills and groceries and see it all dwindle away.
I'm glad you've had such a lovely week. xx
ReplyDeleteWell done for losing a few pounds. Always a bonus. Take care.
ReplyDeleteThat was a busy enough week in my mind. I got back from my daughter's this morning, and I ran to the garden centers (it took three in total to find what I wanted). But I have my plants and hopefully will be planting today. I been re-using my potting soil, I just add fertilizer and some compost, and top it off with new potting soil. So far, it doesn't seem to be causing any issues.
ReplyDeleteI did notice the cost of the plants have gone up too. Good luck with the grocery bill!
