Happy Homemaker Monday

In the kitchen

In the garden

Welcome Monday!

Each week I share a few plans and join Sandra and a few others for a fun little party...

 

The Weather

Fall ahhhh!  I realize that Fall is my favorite time of the year here in Texas.  Don't get me wrong I love Texas but in Fall the weather is cool and crisp and mostly dry.  

We are in the 70's most days.  With a cold snap or two that doesn't last more than a day.  Ahhh.  Texas in Fall.  Nothing better. 

Right now I  am

Thinking of the week ahead and all the things I want/need to do.

I am realizing I need to shorten my work schedule.  I am just praying that we can work it out.  

On the menu

My favorite part of planning my week and sharing with you! 

Monday- Chicken Fried Steak, Mashed Potato's and Green Beans

Tuesday- Leftover Brisket, Beans, Cornbread, Slaw

Wednesday- Seafood Bisque and a crusty bread from a mix

Thursday- Hamburgers, fries etc.

Friday- Can I go out?

You decide if you want to send store bought or 'make' cards or post cards.
