For Today: 2/4/19
_____________________________
Looking out my window
It’s cloudy and raining. Our high for today is 65 degrees.
I am thinking
About a lot of stuff. Got so much on my mind.
I am thankful
For my hubby. He’ll celebrate his 43rd birthday next week on the 15th.
One of my favorite things
Hershey’s bar with almonds. YUM!
I am creating
A seasonal menu plan. My plan is to have 6-week rotational dinner menus for each season.
I am wearing
A striped light blue and white shirt and khakis pants.
I am reading
Getting ready to start a new Bible Study (with the ladies from an online group). This time we are doing 1 Corinthians.
I’m watching
I’ve started watching the “Pride and Prejudice” T.V. series that aired years ago. I have only watched episode 1 so far.
I’m listening to
Nothing but raindrops on the roof at the moment.
I am hoping
I get around to shredding up some old mail and papers we need to get rid of. Got to keep the clutter down.
I am learning
Continuously learning to just trust God and casting all my cares on Him.
In my kitchen
YUM!
Board room
I recently came across some pins with monthly Purge lists that look interesting.

I had this whole response typed out and then I accidently closed the window and poof! My reply was gone. Anyway your smoothies is one of my favorite but I add cocoa powder. I've been having trouble with some diary foods lately so I use almond milk. Last week I thought I would give chocolate almond milk a shot. Oh my goodness it's awesome!
What are your plans for your husband's birthday?
Yes, I also Almond, Coconut, and Rice milk in my smoothies. The Rice milk is okay but not my favorite. I used the Peanut Butter as a protein replacement since I had no protein powder. I like the chocolate one best but also use the vanilla flavor too.
As for dh's birthday, we usually combine celebrating it with Valentine's Day. I cook up a special dinner on both days and of course, he has to have some chocolate cake :) I do heart shaped cupcakes or use a big heart shaped cake pan to make him a cake.
Oh that's so sweet! I'm not sure what Tim and I are going to do for our anniversary and Valentine's Day next week since they are a day apart. We don't have a lot of money to do anything so I will have be creative. I used to have a heart shaped cake pan but like many of our things, it got left at our old house in CA.
Oh honey I'm with you on the "don't have a lot of money to do anything". I too have to get creative. I usually fix something I know he likes ex: spaghetti or lasagna. I try to fancy it up by using a cheap tablecloth or bedsheet spread on the table. Then I grab some candles to put out there. With whatever pasta dish (or casserole) I have a side salad and use the recipe from here https://lovetobeinthekitchen.com/2013/03/12/garlic-texas-toast/ to make garlic toast with regular ole bread. I bought a pack of fake rose petals years ago that I keep reusing. I spread them on the table as well. I sometimes write little love notes on sticky paper and leave them where I know he will find them throughout the day. He LOVES this! You just do what you have to do :)
Hi Tajuana,
I like Hershey’s bar with almonds, too. Yum is right.
Do you like the Pride and Prejudice so far?
Thanks for visiting me at Harvest Lane Cottage.

Hey Laura! I have watched 1 episode of Pride and Prejudice so far and it was good. Life's been busy so I'll have to watch more soon.
