I'm back!!!!!!

Did you miss me?

I'll admit it, I'm indecisive. I mean like really, really indecisive. I thought I would like another blog's interface better for this, but here I am back at home. I think blogger fits for me. I am just not "computer" enough to understand some of the stuff on other sites. So here I am again with my indecisive self.

Well, not much as changed in life on the farm. There is still laundry waiting to be folded, animals to feed and a sweet baby to play with. We have however done a few improvements or should I say started a few more improvements on the farm house. It's only taken us months and months, but farmer Roy "almost" has the outside of the house including the shutters painted. Hopefully by Christmas this will be done.

Back on election day, after we voted as a family, we headed out for a trip through the South Carolina countryside. We ended up at Ikea in Charlotte and ended up buying our cabinets, counter tops, and other goodies for our kitchen re-do. After going through a number of phone calls and hassle (a story for another time) all our stuff was finally delivered last week. I can't wait until we get to start ripping out the old and installing the new. Everyone cross your fingers and toes that it goes smoothly.

I did recently rip down the make-shift wall in the now nursery so we could turn the closet back around for Maddie's toddler room. All is well so far, but I'm still in the middle of putting coats of joint compound on it to make it purty. I promise to post pics soon to show the progress. Once I'm done with the rooms, I'm gonna make myself finish the office that has quickly become our storage room.

I promise to stick with this blog and keep everyone update to life out here on the farm.

Before I go, why not share a cute pic of the lil' one that her daddy took of her out in the field. Hope ya'll have a happy Thursday!

Menu Planning.........


So I'm determined to start menu planning to make life here at the farm a little easier. Roy and I are always at a loss when it comes to dinner time if I haven't thought it out before hand. All the freezer meals I made when I was nesting have been long gone and man I miss them. So, here's my plan for the next week. If you have any recipe questions, ask away and I'll try to let you know. I'm off the the grocery store.........

  • Tuesday, March 16 - Chicken Pot Pie (this is the best recipe ever, so yummy)
  • Wednesday, March 17 -Crockpot Philly cheese steak sammies, sweet potato fries and a veggie of farmer Roy's choice
  • Thursday, March 18 - Quiche and Salad
  • Friday, March 19 - Shrimp and Grits
  • Saturday, March 20 - Manicotti, Salad, & Garlic Bread
