Good Morning! I had a SUPER productive weekend as well as watched the race and football, but now I am ready for a great new week – lots of last minute projects to finish as the BIG move is now closer.
It’s Monday morning so be sure to join in with Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom for Happy Homemaker Monday. Go check it out to see what it’s all about!
ON THE BREAKFAST MENU:
- A big cup of coffee and apple maple cinnamon oatmeal with golden raisins.
TODAY’S TO DO LIST:
- Dr. appointment
- Packing
- Errands
- Phone Calls
CURRENTLY (STILL) READING:
- ONCE UPON A TIME – Summerhill Book #5 by Kate Perry
- KISSES AFTER DARK – A Gansett Island Book #12 by Marie Force
TV SHOWS THIS WEEK:
Now that the FALL schedule has started there so many new shows and we are STILL trying to work out our new fall choices.
WEATHER OUTSIDE MY WINDOW:
Still really warm here during the day despite the 10-15 degree drop in temperatures during the day, but evenings are feeling fantastic with a slight breeze also. I keep reminding myself that it’s only for a very short time more as I really look forward to the much cooler temperatures and rain.
The temps were supposed drop an additional 10 degrees this week, but changed last minute and are still in high 90’s and we have to finish painting no matter what so we can leave here – that’s my big project for the week.

PLAY TIME (if I can find any ~ yeah right)
As always do a little quilting and finish a few older projects though I have yet to have a few minutes to myself LOL like that’s going to happen.
NEW RECIPES TO TRY:
Not trying anything new the next couple of weeks since I’m on the countdown clean out so we don’t move any food!
IN THE YARD & GARDEN
HOMEMAKING TIP OF THE WEEK:
Start at the top of a room (fans and light fixtures, etc…) when you’re cleaning. That way the dust settles at the bottom and you vacuum it all away.
Also as we head into cooler weather Menu Planning is a great way to save some money as well as trips to the store in the cold weather.
Still trying to get organized for the move so have not done as much blog hopping as I’d like. I promise I will be so much better after the move.
Sorry for last week’s rant, I’ll just keep it to myself for this week. 😀
Good luck with the move Tamy 🙂 As always your menu sounds delicious.
Thanks – I CAN NOT wait for cooler weather – I so hate it here! Here's the link for the Bean and Bacon Rolls – they are yummy! Bean and Bacon Rolls I hope you enjoy them.
We LOVE Empanadas! I'm always looking for new and traditional recipes from other parts of the world!
Good luck on the impending move. We should finally be getting fall type weather this week and I am so excited for it. I am sick of the heat!
Your menu looks really good, especially the sound of the bacon and bean rolls. Do you have a recipe for it?
Hello Tamy! I'm so happy to see that you cook empanadas, it's a traditional dish here in Argentina. We make them with meat, ckicken, cheese, bacon, every place in the country has it own recipe, I love the ones from Salta, in the northern part of Argentina.
Have a nice week!
