Another busy few days around here. Canned up the rest of the chicken and broth. Still scratch cooking every night. We’ve had chicken chili, chicken pot pie and chicken soup. Tonight we’re having breakfast cause we’re pretty tired of chicken. For a real treat we made a dump cake for desert last night. Deserts are something that has been kind of scarce this month without running to the grocery every other day. It hasn’t bothered me but the grands have been a little grumpy about it. I noticed how much more appreciative they were after going without for a couple of weeks. That’s not a bad thing.
My daughter has been using the laundry sauce I made a week or so ago. It’s not as smelly as she likes but she’s not complaining. It’s cheap and it works! Last night I pulled out a ton of plastic grocery sacks that we had stored to cut up to make “plarn”. I decided to crochet some mats to go outside the doors. While I’m at it I’m thinking I may also cut up some old t-shirts to make a new bathmat since the old one is pretty ragged.
