Household Checklist :
- Freeze orange quarters for Christmas punch. Cut oranges in thin slices to dry and put on Christmas tree
Oranges on the Christmas Tree? What? Oh I have to go Google that! It sounds like something I might want to do!
And regarding ideas for teens -- remind me, are they boys or girls and older teens or younger teens? I'll share my list. I'm going shopping for the stuffers today. EOS lotion was on the list for both girls. I have some fun college dorm items on the list for the older ones.
Living Room here is still a complete disaster, but the hearth is DONE! And it looks GREAT -- and more importantly it drafts the way it is supposed to. The concrete has to set though and DH still has the woodboxes to finish so can't start putting the room back together til tomorrow. So glad we didn't have a cold snap this past week!
My list for the week:
Food Storage Week
- Clean out the refrigerator.
- Clean out the freezer - DONE.
- Set up a freezer inventory.
- Organize and inventory the pantry -- DONE.
- Prep for food donation drives
- Contemplate better storage for dried pantry items (for storms, camping & Zombie Apocalypse)
- Stock up on seasonal staples. It's loss leader time at the supermarket.
- Plan potluck meals. - Really need to nail down my go-to recipes for this.
- Add freezer meals to the freezer for busy December nights. DONE.
