Project 365 – #158 Today was all about strawberries. I ordered a lot of strawberries with my Bountiful Baskets order this week. Our whole house smells like strawberries. Yum! Here’s a glimpse into our strawberry day…. It was a very long, but delicious day in the kitchen. It’s nice to have lots of strawberry jam and frozen strawberries put away in the freezer. The popcycle is simply pureed strawberries that I put in the popcycle molds. It was a very healthy, refreshing treat on a hot afternoon.

Earlier this year, D told Munchkin that if she could show that she would be completely responsible for a pet, we would consider it. She had to write up…

Project 365 – #155 Today, I decided to make something a little different for brunch. I had some fresh fruit from the Bountiful Baskets that I had just picked up, so I decided to incorporate some of those items into the meal. I had some Udi’s multi-grain bread that had been left out a little too long (oops!) which meant that I needed to use that up.
