happy homemaker monday 7/21/14

Linking up with Diary of a Stay at Home Mom for Happy Homemaker Monday......a day late!

Breakfast time...what is on the plate this morning:
I'm not a huge fan of breakfast- if anything, usually toast w/ butter and a small glass of milk. I know....very boring!

On today's to do list:
- set out breakfast @ b&b
- bike ride
- work for a few hours
-pick up Mom and Dad
- laundry and make dinner

Currently reading:
The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
Surprised By Motherhood by Lisa-Jo Baker
(both on my Kindle)


On tv today:
Pioneer Woman
(On DVR)

The weather outside is:
Beautiful, sunny, summer day. Very pleasant, low humidity.

On the menu this week:
I am so off track with meals and am pretty much taking it day by day. This is something that frustrates me, yet I can't seem to get back on track with meal planning.

What we've had so far this week.....
Monday- Meatloaf
Tuesday- Soft Shell Crabs

If I have a few minutes to myself, I will:
BLOG!!!!!! I have missed having the time or energy to blog. I did catch up over the weekend and spend every "free" minute blogging and catching up on reading other blogs that I love.

New recipe I want to try, or have tried this week:

I'm making muffins as part of the continental breakfast and want to try a bulk muffin mix to help make things easier and more organized. I could do blueberry, cinnamon, coconut, etc.depending on what I have on hand.

In the garden:
I have lots of pretty, blooming flowers.







No tomatoes yet! :0(

Favorite photo from my camera:
all the pretty flower photos above from my summer garden.....

Homemaking tip:
The lid from a parmesan cheese container fits a mason jar perfectly. Looks much better!


Visiting with blog friends (a blog you want to share, or a post that caught your eye...)
I follow Erin's blog Sunny Side Up and enjoy reading about her family, her decorating and organizing tips, and love checking out all the pictures of her beautiful,  new home.

Praying for:
Both of the boys as they travel today for crew change. Also, for two of my friends who have recently been diagnosed with cancer (and their families).

Bible verse, or devotional that is resonating with me at the moment:


I can't get away from Hebrews 6:19.....
