This 'n' That

I've decided I do not like kale. Usually I like stuff just because I know it is good for me. And I know kale is good for me. But I don't like it and I am not going to eat it anymore.

I am trying to have a productive day at home today. So far I've folded two loads of laundry, washed and dried 3 (still to fold), vaccumed all the floors, mopped the kitchen, hallway, and laundry room floors, went to 2 grocery stores with my daughter, sorted baby clothes for an hour, and redistributed some toys (put some away, got others out).

I made homemade ketchup last night because we were out, but we had tomato paste.

I have been slacking lately on getting blog posts up in time for the theme days. I have things to write, just not the time on those particular days. Maybe I will prewrite some things this weekend.

We need a new grill. Ours has no handle and there is a bird's nest in it. How nice would it be to win this one? Though I'd prefer propane, it is simple and would work just fine.

I want some new throw pillows (see p. 41) for the living room. We don't do a lot of gifts around here, but can I buy myself a Mother's Day present?

Stuff (for my husband) to do hopefully in the next month: move the computer wiring and the computer desk to the basement, move the baby furniture into that bedroom, get "big girl" furniture and move it into our daughter's room. I wish I could do this stuff myself and just get it done, but I can't.

I also want to rearrange the living room this weekend.

That's about it for now. Have a great weekend!

So the kale chips were a no-go? I get it in our co-op and puree it to sneak into spaghetti sauce and stuff. That's how I get my kale! But I think spinach is just about the same nutrients, so half a dozen of one...

Do you know what you're having? I don't remember seeing it posted. I find out June 1st and am VERY anxious to know!

That's good to know. I definitely prefer spinach :)

We are having a BOY! I am excited (especially for my husband). Sorry, I may have mentioned it briefly, but I usually put the more personal stuff over on my other blog, which you are welcome to look at.

Now that you've had one of each, you'll be a pro either way with this one!
