Happy Homemaker in Texas

Welcome to am almost weekly Saturday post.  I am sorry I missed last week.  The end of the week was a bit crazy and then all last week I played catch up! 

But today I am Happy to have a day off to plan somethings and share with you!

The weather

has already gotten hot.  We may be having a really hot summer since it's already been in upper 90's and a couple days reaching 100.  I am already looking and planning for Fall!

Right now

I am thinking about cooking some scrambled eggs!

Outside my window

I have a little garden beside the front walk just outside the window in my 'creating room'.  The rose has stopped blooming from the heat I guess but I have Begonia's and Dusty Miller to look at. I also 

have some Canna's planted closer to the house but I can't see them.

On my reading pile

I finally got a chance to sit down with Falling for You by Becky Wade.  My review is posted here. 

I have a few Cozy's and a romance or two  to read . . . 

         

The 'To Do' list

Deep clean house

Mop the kitchen daily

Relax (hehe)

Finishing binding quilt and hang

My 'Ta Da' moment

I finished the quilting on my July 4th quilt and the binding 

is almost done.  

In the kitchen 

Making this week 

Or maybe this 

Leaning more toward Hamburger Soup.  I'll loosely follow this 

recipe but cook on the stove.  I don't have a big crock pot.

On the menu

Taking a break on menu planning.  We are trying to clean out the freezer to defrost it.  Not sure what will come out when during the week. We have a few choices

Ribs (2 racks),  Shrimp, Talapia, Ground Beef (4 2# packages), Spinach Tortellini and a few unrecognizable leftover packages

In the garden

Sadness.  The tomatoes have just stopped.  The neighbors say 

it is too hot!  The cucumbers have blooms (alot) my least favorite thing in the garden.  The bell peppers stopped also.  It was really hot the last few days.  My flowers are more shaded they are doing better than the crops!

In the craft basket

My fabric and machine are calling my name.  I plan to quilt my 

pumpkin quilt next and then start creating again.  

Still working on folding fabric and get the room back organized again!
