Its been SUCH a lovely, productive day, and the kids aren’t even home yet! Thats probably why I got so much done 😏 I tease. Sort of.
Before 9am, I had texted my doctor and booked an appointment, texted a social worker and set up a phone appt, sorted and started laundry, ordered some things for the girls ballet performance, ordered some important items for the morsel, and began an Amazon return. Oh and I pulled out eggs for the baking I planned to do later in the day, because room temperature eggs are usually important. Right? Right. I think.
After those things were done, Cher came over for coffee and some breakfast toast. Yes, I am that classy, serving my guests toast 😅 But she was happy and we had a really nice couple of hours together. In that time, the babies also got up. I fed the morsel and Cher fed the spoonful. It was a really nice time all together!
When Cher headed home, the babies went for naps, and I got back into it! I had some lunch first, and watched 20 minutes or so on YouTube. I hung to dry the annoying load of laundry and kept that all moving. My baking plan turned out to not be possible today, so I shifted gears and decided to bake something else. Three batches later, I have enough cookies baked and contained to make 95 homemade oreos! And I do mean LEMON oreos! They are incredible. Don’t knock them until you’ve tried them.
I have them ready to freeze, and when the time comes to actually serve them or gift them, I’ll make the filling and they’ll come together SO quickly. Boom. One big batch off the list! The other baking can wait for another day.
Or. Maybe I’ll get into that once the kids are home. I could at least make dough. Hmmm 🤔 They’ll be home very shortly, and I have a few chores for them.
If I’m done baking for the day, that is also ok 💜 I’ve done plenty of good work today. And there is still supper to cook! I think I’m officially almost out of ground beef, which I have not been for a LONG time, thanks to the crazy generosity of people we love 💜 Who/where do my local friends buy their beef from? I’d so love to support those around me!!
Ok. Whew! Gonna put my feet up for five more minutes!! Except the morsel just started crying… 😅
