A Productive Saturday...

It has been a good and full day! I always enjoy being home on Saturdays and being "busy at home"...doing things to care for my family. Here is a rundown of my day:

• washed a load of my husband's work clothes and a load of towels...folded and put all away

• made more baby food - I buy two large cans of sliced peaches with no sugar added and one can of fruit cocktail no sugar added, and blend it all up in my blender. I then put this fruit mixture into baby food jars, put the lids on, and place them in my freezer. This makes quite a few jars and keeps me stocked for a while.

• ground up some brisket for hamburger - my husband and I just started doing this and we LOVE the hamburger! We buy brisket when it is on sale and ground it up using my meat grinder attachment for my Bosch. I then put 2 lbs. in quart-sized freezer bags and put them in my freezer.

• made hamburger buns for our dinner tonight - I made a 2-loaf batch of bread dough which made 16 buns. We used 8 for dinner and the rest I put in the freezer for another meal.

• made Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars because we were totally out of dessert at our house!

• made lunch for tomorrow (Sunday) and put it in the refrigerator - all ready to put in the oven in the morning before leaving for church

• then add to all that things like dishes, baths, following two toddlers around to keep them out of trouble, playing with my kids, and working on my newest ebook!

As I said, it has been a full but good day. I thank the Lord daily for the privilege I have to be home.
