Happy Homemaker Monday

The weather in my neck of the woods:
Last night -3.6°C

Things that make me happy:
balancing the books, the fact that our school reunion is on the day of Christmas in July

Book I am reading:
I'm hoping the library delivers book 2 of Lori Copeland's series, I thought they didn't have book 2 so it is a nice surprise, Belles of Timber Creek

What I am enjoying on TV:
Everyone in our family (except me) has been watching Deltora Quest, they are also reading the corresponding book, sounds very lucky

On the menu for dinner:
We had an egg & potato salad

On my To Do list:
To go to the library

New Recipe I tried or want to try soon:
Pumpkin & Capsicum Fajitas

In the craft basket:
Nothing

Looking forward to this week:
Seeing if I have better luck with the lukewarm shower I had this morning, I suppose I won't be looking forward to anything then

Tips and tricks:
Putting cilantro/coriander on heavy barley soups makes them more palatable

My favourite blog post this week:
Can I Ask You Something? a very popular blog talks about blogging, and the readers respond about what they like

Blog Hopping (a new discovered blog you would like to share with the readers):
I don't know if I have made any discoveries this week

No words needed: from a week or so ago, you can see more mortar is needed yet (other house)



Lesson learned the past few days:
That my husband has a cyst on his wrist, not a bump as we first thought from injury

On my mind:
Why on earth you can forget something so important of a few months back, like how often to use mouthwash, apparently I was supposed to use it one week in four, I hope

Devotionals, Scripture Reading, Key Verses:
Not sure
