Busy Bee

By Anonymous
Scott decided to sleep in today so I made my own breakfast and left him to making his own. 

He eats quickly before heading off to work for the day. 

While he was at work I decided to do a million things. I'm not one to sit still. Even when I'm "relaxing" I'm still doing something else like knitting. I could never have an office job or something that had me stay in the same place.

So today I made granola, anadama bread, cleaned out the fridge, made gaucamole, took a break for lunch, washed all our light fixtures, cleaned the bathrooms, vacuumed and washed the floors and made butter.

Oh and I made dinner. Chicken tikka masala. I did however forget to make naan. 

  The first thing Scott says when he comes home is, "Holy dishes Batman!"

 
Then Scott is left to all the dishes while I get to relax knit. 

We end the night early with reading in bed.

So tell me again how you make your oatmeal. I bought some old fashioned oats at the store and now what? 

P.S. I have to say, it's so fun commenting now that I know where everything is!!! :)

Amanda--Just follow the directions on your oatmeal container. I do 1 3/4 cup water to 1 cup oats.

At the time of this post I was reading, What Einstein Told His Cook 2. It's about the science behind food.

A Texas-Louisiana-Arkansas Hipcamp Road Trip: Back to Arkansas and a Night in Iowa

I hadn't really planned on driving through Mississippi, so I found a route that took us back through Lousiana and into Arkansas. Before we made it to the Land of the Downriver People we stopped in Monroe for some soul food.

A Smoky Weekend at the Cottage and a Stop at Ladysmith's Northland Mardi Gras

By
This summer we decided to go to the cottage any weekend we had nothing else going on. This week, due to fires in the Boundary Waters and Canada, the air quality was pretty terrible. We debated if we should still go, but it looked like it would clear up by Saturday. So we took the chance. And by terrible, we mean the worst air quality we'd ever seen. Along the way we decided to stop at John and Heidi's Happy Daze . We've passed this place probably 100 times. It was about time to stop by. I ordered the prime rib sandwich special.  Yummy. The sandwich that is. Everybody's food was really good, but Brooke's was the star of the show.  I want to get back here asap. Now if only this pesky smoke would go away.

A Blasé Weekend in Late July

By
We have a busy August. This Friday looked like the last Friday before school starts where we are around. I suggested getting breakfast at Al's Breakfast. I also wanted to go here before the college kids weren't back in school yet. I tried getting Theo to order the pancakes, but he got the waffles. I think everyone was happy with their breakfast. Still the best breakfast in Minneapolis. Theo woke up early this morning and was willing to go on a walk with me. Based on the photo above, I think you woke him up. He scored some good books at a little library. Later, I took the kids swimming at Weber Park. It was cloudy and dark at home and up in North Minneapolis it was clear and sunny. I finally convinced Theo to tie back his hair when he goes swimming so his hair isn't in his face. Later Brooke and I went and picked up a hoosier cabinet for our kitchen landing. This custom shelf the old owners made would have to find a new home in the basement. This was nice enough but the micr...
