Project 365 ~ Week 16

I had an inkling on Friday when I was shopping for all the flowers for my back yard that there was something in the works. By the end of the day after long hours digging holes in the hot sun I felt really yucky, my throat hurt and I really did not feel well. Saturday morning I woke up with a full blown sore throat, stuffy nose and nasty cough. I spent the rest of the weekend nursing my cold with alka seltzer plus and my box of tissues.

Sunday, Monday and Tuesday…..no pictures.

Thankful by Tuesday evening I was feeling much better. It was a good thing as I had my bible study class. I have finally gotten the routine down of getting me and Muffinhead out of the house down to a science. I have figured out that it is easer to leave really early and let her have her breakfast with her class at church or just let her have her breakfast with  me in our room before I take her down. No food in the tummy lessens the chance of her getting car sick, which she has done a few times. That made for wonderful mornings. I think we have it figured out now that the bible study schedule is over in one week. Go figure!

I have to make a few trips out to the car to get all our stuff loaded and this is just a green light for Muffinhead and Buster to get settled in for a car ride. Much to Busters dismay he never gets to come along for the fun! He does keep Muffinhead company while I get all out stuff loaded in the car though.

I was watching Paula Deen make Shrimp and Grits on her show and it sounded so good. The closest I could come for supper was pan seared butterfly pork chops and cheesy polenta. I served sautéed kale (for me the the DD) Allen’s green beans for the Hub’s (he does not like kale) and we had a fresh picked from the garden green salad! YUM!

I had to restrain myself not to buy all four that they had marked down. I did get two of them. One to cook now and one for the freezer! The Hubs loves lamb!

Well that was my week. I hope everyone is enjoying the spring weather and taking lots of pictures!

That's the way it usually is, right about the time you figure out how things need to work, it's over. Sorta like going to a conference but staying in a different hotel. I get lost every time going back and forth until the last day. haha

Glad you're feeling better!

I love scoring good deals at the grocery store :) I always feel like I've conquered something grand. haha And nothing makes me more upset than to buy something one day and have it go on sale the next :/

Have a great week!

Awww, I hope you're all better by now. Sore throats are just the pits. Of course, with gas prices the way they are, none of us are going to be "feeling" better. Ugh. :(
Certainly makes ya think before just hopping into your car to run and do this and that, doesn't it?

glad youre feeling better! that food looks delicious! I have only recently discovered kale, and only used it in soup so far. I'll have to look into some other uses for it.
I can't believe you got such a good deal on the lamb! good job!

Your meal looks good and good score on the lamb. I nearly died on your gas price. I thought 50.00 was bad. How much is gas your way?

Sunday, March 13   Monday, March 14 This is coming up in the herb garden. My sweet furry family member decided it was his greatest joy to pull almost all my plant labels out of the ground and use them for chew toys.  I think this is marjoram but I am not sure. Tuesday, March 15 Click on the link Southern Eggs En Cocotte for the recipe. It was real good y’all!   No pictures on Wednesday, March 16 Thursday, March 17 Can you tell who was at my house all day?   I guess she figured since her toys were scattered all over the floor that she would join them. She laid down sprawl-eagle and did the back stroke for several minutes then switched to rolling from tummy to back all the way into the living room!   Friday, March 18 Today was cake decorating day. Click here to see the start to finish. Saturday, March 19 Today was Muffinhead’s birthday party at a local park! The sun was shinning and the weather was beautiful and a good time was had by all...

Announcing the “I won…You Win Giveaway!!!”

Several weeks ago I was the lucky winner of a book giveaway from Mocha with Linda . Click here to read her post about this book! As I finished the book up the other day I began to think about the two women the story centers around. The story begins with two pen pals in elementary school and they continue with there friendship for many, many years through letters and emails, but they have never actually met, not until things change for the main character. Her life takes an unexpected turn and she finds herself face to face with her long time pen pal. I began to think of the similarities between the two women in the book and all of you, my fellow bloggers. As members of this unique internet community we enter into each other lives as we read each others posts, as we comment, share encouraging words or just a well needed giggle now and then. But what I enjoyed as I read this book was the depiction of the friendship these two women shared. They had been intimately involved...
