It is also the day I take a meal in so I have to plan for that. I made two squash casseroles yesterday and I am going to make fake shake and bake chicken and some rice krispie treats. I have stuff left over from the wedding to use up.
I have never made a squash casserole and this was delicious
I mixed yellow squash sliced thin with and onion sliced thin , then added 1/4 cup of mayo and 1/4 cup sour cream, salt and pepper to taste. Layer this and cover with 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. I then added a topping of one package of chicken stuffing. I normally don't buy processed stuffing but these were on a close out for .25 a box and I needed to use them. This was so good although not low call in any way. A keeper of a recipe.
The kitchen did not get cleaned last night as I was finishing up the hand work on a dress. So I need to go up and clean and get some things ready for dinner. I want to be able to get into the shop when the kids go down for their naps. Or maybe if I get everything done I can take a nap with them. Doesn't that sound great?
Another chart was complete yesterday. I am amazed at the amount of money savings I have had. This is what a snowball does for you, also being so busy you can't get out and spend money helps.
I also was able to get my ticket booked to go see Sis and Sluggy. We are doing a girls trip early October. I can hardly wait it will be a nice break that I will really have earned.
Well I need to figure out how I am going to press a wedding dress and make a meal with two little ones under my feet. Wish me luck!
Have a great and productive day staying positive while you are in the negative.

DeleteLook at you go on all those completed charts. You rule!
ReplyDeleteI love a good squash casserole. We have it often with just green beans and coleslaw.
You are so kind to take meals on a regular basis!
It was so funny yesterday because of the littles I was behind and here it was 6 p.m. and I usually contact my friend about 4 p.m. to let her know when I am coming. So at 6:01 I texted her to say I was on the way and when I got to the house she was teaching a lesson (on our old baby grand that we gave away when mom moved in as we got hers) so I just took the meal into her parents apartment. Her mom who still recognizes me said that Amy had just been downstairs between lessons worrying about dinner and I texted that I was on my way. Amy threw her hands in the air and said "Thank the Lord!" and ran back upstairs to continue teaching. Amy's dad just sits in a chair and doses now but he does like to eat!
Deletecharts and more charts. You sound more upbeat-must be the trip planning.
ReplyDeleteYou know I kind of am, I think just the weight of the wedding and things getting financially easier is starting to take effect. I still have too much to do but I can see that what I am doing is working and that this too will end eventually. How are you doing my friend? I went into a real depression after my last one left. It took about 6 weeks to realize I was okay.
DeleteI think the nap idea sounds good. Then you'll be refreshed for getting things done later, after the kids go home.
ReplyDeleteI did get to sleep for about 1.5 hours and it was glorious!
DeleteYou'll soon be in single digits on that mortgage. Brilliant!

I now and then I have to decide, do I want to use the rest of my inheritance to just pay the darn thing off and then put the money back?
DeleteHi Kim,
ReplyDeleteI am stealing your squash recipe. It is making my mouth water. A nap sounds good to me. Enjoy one. Congrats on filling out another chaer. That mortgage will be gone before you know it.
I know but not fast enough for me.
