...and of course the pellet stove has not been installed. I'm going to print out his "to-do" list so he can see it daily. Maybe that will motivate him.
I made us a crock pot chicken Mexican style soup over the weekend. Although corn (cutting this out of the menu more often) was added, it was very good. I am so glad I found this Chia and Quinoa tortilla chips (all organic ingredients). Hubby can add a tiny bit of crunch and a small dollop of organic sour cream (although now I have to also watch the cholesterol a bit more).
Russell Crow (aka rooster) has not charged at me since the other incident. Not sure if he was just having a bad day or what.
Speaking of chicken, I'm having a horrible time locating organic turkey. I even tried the organic farm 1 hour from our place. Nope. I guess I'll be trying the health store today.
I have a new recipe to try this week. Crossing my fingers I get the time to make it.
Today I'm joining Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom.
I'll link up when she posts. I need to get my day started so I can cut and split wood as planned.

From the camera . . .
We saw this over the weekend in another town. I love the idea of recycling the newspaper/magazine stands into free food pantries. There is much need for it I am sure.
Chore I am not looking forward to today . . .
Not really a chore, but more of self care chore - working out.
To relax this week I will . . .
Write and read.
On my prayer list . . .
