OUTSIDE MY WINDOW & THE WEATHER OUTSIDE
Last week was EXTREMELY pleasant and in the high 60’s with tons of sunshine and a cool breeze. I don’t think this week will be the same as they are predicting mid 80’s and higher humidity. So far this morning, not so bad, but we’ll see.
ON THE BREAKFAST PLATE
I haven’t been very hungry in the mornings, but am trying to keep with the menu plan. This morning is peach yogurt and coffee.
AS I LOOK AROUND THE HOUSE
I’m pretty happy with it. With spring approaching I am having to vacuum daily LOL as the black lab just doesn’t want to wear his winter coat any longer, not that we had a winter to begin with.

CURRENTLY READING & TELEVISION / DVR
Still trying a few of the newer shows. I just can’t get a feeling for the new cable and TV scheduling and it leaves me a bit unsure of what I want to watch. I’m still reading Jana Deleon books. I’ve been intrigued by her Bayou mystery types.
KITCHEN REVIEWS
I LOVE my new Indigo True Bamboo cutting board. I’d been looking for a smaller one (8×13) with a juice catch for resting and cutting meats so I didn’t need drag out my large Pampered chef one all the time. THIS BOARD IS A DREAM! It is also the perfect size for small roasts and cuts of meat. PLUS it was on sale for half price!

HOMEMAKING/COOKING TIP
ON MY MIND
More on this eventually, but for now, this says it all. I’m really hurt and betrayed that I’m seeing a blood relative’s true colors ESPECIALLY after doing so much for them AND while I’m so sick.
FAVORITE PHOTO FROM THE CAMERA
LOL Somehow I let the battery run down on the camera so this category is empty this week.

Hi Tamy! I’m so glad you’re liking your new doctors. I’m sending prayers that you’re in wonderful competent hands and that you all come up with the perfect course of action! You are obviously such a strong Lady – so keep up the great work! Plus, the ultimate strength is always there and you know you’re forever in His loving and capable hands. Give some of it up to Him and I hope you find reassurance there. 😉
Sending you hugs and happy thoughts for a wonderfully blessed week ahead. xoxo
Those parm chicken meatballs sound really great! I never thought to make them as meatballs before, very inventive! Have a great week,
Sherry
So glad to hear you are loving your new doctors. Sorry to hear about your relative I do hope it works itself out and they see what a Jem you are. hope you take it easy and have a blessed week.
I’m so sorry things aren’t going well for you and that a relative is letting you down. Please take care of yourself. Hope you start to feel better and things improve very soon.
