Breakfast time....what is on the plate this morning::::
Fabulous little mini quiches I found at my Crazy Kroger.  Marked down to $1.99.  I love these for breakfast 1 min. 30 seconds in the microwave.  A yummy and nutritious start to the day.

New recipe I tried, or want to try this week::::
I would like to try a tortilla soup recipe if I get a chance.  We cooked a lot of chicken over the weekend and put it in the freezer.


In the garden::::
Rnd 1,2,3 of the carrots have sprouted.  The big tomato doing great.  The one that fell is lingering on.
The zucchini looks good on some days.  Can't figure it out.  I planted some herbs and flowers last week.
I'll be writing a diary post this afternoon.


Favorite photo from the camera::::

Homemaking Tip::::
When I have frozen items like the quiches I got on sale I take them out of the original large box.  These quiches for example are already packaged in a tray with a covering.  I just put them in the freezer in the tray.  Two trays take the space of one. 
Egg rolls are usually loose in the box so I put them in portion sizes in sandwich or quart bags and then put the bag in a cheaper bag with a twist tie.  Saves lots of room!  I store the flatten boxes with the instructions on the top of fridge 
under a basket I keep napkins in.  Out of site but ready when needed.  

Visiting with Blog friends (blog you want to share, blog post that caught your eye):::
Join me and visit my friend Laura at Harvest Lane.  I met this sweet blogger when I hosted my Fabulous Fall Linky Party.  Laura was really sweet to link her posts.  I've enjoyed visiting her ever sense and getting to know her.  She is a frugal girl and inspires me.  Go by and visit and let her know I sent you!

I am starting that new job today.  I pray it is all I am hoping it will be.  I've been trying to get this job for over 5 years.  I pray that I do good!

Bible Verse, Devotional that is resonating with me at the moment::::

I made this a few years ago for Wordfilled Wednesday.  I really miss that party.  
This verse goes with the post I wrote yesterday.  I'd love you to check it out.  My new Sunday post will be about what I heard at church.  Click here to visit that post.
