Happy Homemaker Monday – August 10, 2015

August 10, 2015 by Debbie 3 Comments

Happy Monday everyone!  How was your weekend?  We took the girls to the Millarville Farmer’s Market and had a great time.  We bought lots of fresh produce and the girls each spent their pocket money.  Miss S bought a shark tooth necklace and Miss C bought a pony cake pop.

Breakfast time … what is on the plate this morning:

Baked oatmeal and tea.

On today’s to do list:

  • Laundry
  • Inventory pantry / freezer
  • Write grocery list
  • Inventory children’s clothes for school
  • Dust baseboards
  • Schedule annual doctor appointments

Currently reading:

The weather outside is:

Cloudy this morning, but it will be hot this afternoon and for most of the rest of the week.

On the menu this week:

  • Monday: Balsamic baked salmon with rice, peas and garden salad
  • Tuesday: Tacos
  • Wednesday: Sweet and sour chicken with rice
  • Thursday: Ham and mushroom pizza with garden salad
  • Friday: Leftovers / buffet night
  • Saturday: Dinner out

What I am creating at the moment:

Organized, clean rooms for the girls before they go back to school.

Things that make me happy:

Looking forward to this week:

Taking a trip to the corn maze and fun farm.

    I think I would have enjoyed the cupcake stall as well. I also like to try and get the kids’ rooms clean and organized before the start of school. Hope you have a wonderful week!
