Today I worked in the yard in the morning. If you know me, you will know how shocking it is that I worked in the yard. I am not a gardener. I have a brown thumb. All my favorite things to do are done indoors - listening to and playing music, reading, cooking, watching movies, reading and more reading.
But now I am in my kitchen cooking up a storm. I made my homemade sugar-free ketchup. I made a bazillion pieces of french toast to freeze. I made a blackberry/strawberry crisp. The best part is that no one bothers me when they see I am in the bulk cooking mode. I get to listen to my favorite music, too. I love this kind of Saturday. It is very fulfilling to get things done in the kitchen.
On another note, my parents and my daughter, Jordan, are in Zimbabwe as I am writing this. (Jordan, if you can get to my blog, I miss you already!!) I am still in awe of how God worked all things out for Jordan to go on this trip. I know He wants her in Africa.

Jenn, can you share your sf ketchup recipe? That would be a great alternative for my Hubs & kids!
ReplyDeleteJackie has a good ketchup recipe, too. It's made with honey, though.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I did some bulk cooking as well today. It felt good. How do you get the kid to leave you alone though?
I made a gallon of cabbage/garden/pork stew (code for leftovers) and two swiss brocolli casseroles (one for dinner and one for the freezer) today. Felt good!
