A Company Ready House

I have been thinking. I know, I know...

A friend called the other day and asked if they could come by, the were bringing me somethng. I said sure and then I went around the house cleaning a little here and a little there. The next day, I was thinking, "Why do we (and I say "we" because I know I am not the only one) do that?

I know we want the house to look good but why doesn't it alway look presentable? Shouldn't it look good for the members of the house hold. I didn't want them to see my mess but it is ok for my family to look at it day after day?

I am going to do better!! I want a company ready house at all times. Now, don't come now because I have to get started first. LOL.. Ok, up to do dishes, laundry and clean the bathroom.

Jonathan made us supper the other night. It was totally his idea without any help from Mom or Dad except Daddy helped him slice the apples.

This blessed me sooo much. I just couldn't explain to him how it made me feel. Maybe someday his will know though.

Kabobs had apple, cherry tomatoes, olives, blueberries and grapes. An interesting combinations but not too bad. I am not an olive eater but I ate mine this night. :)

More snow

Quote for the day:

Do things with your children that you really don't want to do and someday when you are old they will do things with/for you when they don't really want to.

It is snowing again. Yee Haw.

More snow

We got more snow. I love taking snow pictures. This is my fish pond.



My husband build a snow boy. He is so creative.

He looks like a giant here.

Have a happy day!

Homemade peanut butter.

You start with raw peanuts. This time I didn't bother getting the skins off.






I roasted them but I can't remember how long. LOL. Good tutorial, huh?



I then ran them thru my Champion Juicer. It get too warm so I had to take a few breaks before it was all done.

The end results. Fresh made peanut butter. Opps, just relized this picture is side ways. Hope the peanut butter doesn't pour out. :)

Days of winter.

My husband turned the couch on its front to sweep after our New Years Party and Jonathan and I made a tent. Jonathan slept there two nights.



We made Carrot Apple Juice. YUM!

I finally cooked on our wood stove. Stew. Can't wait to eat some here in a bit.

Daddy and Son playing table, or should I say floor, Hockey.

Happy New Year

Just wanted to pop in and say Happy New Year to everyone. I have stuff to share but can't right now. Hopefully later today.
