Another day/weekend gone by

Well I didn't get everything accomplished on my list once again.  But isn't that normal for those moms that are out there.  I guess that makes me feel better because I know I'm not alone. :)  I did get most of the laundry done, at least enough that we shouldn't have to run around naked this week!  I did get shortcake made and Strawberry Jam.  Yum!  We only ordered out one night and I cooked the rest of the weekend.  The kitchen is cleaned up and it is almost bedtime.  I do need to make sure that bills get paid (or at least the urgent ones) before bed.  The rest will have to wait until another night.

A couple of years ago I started making freezer strawberry jam.  I remember my mom canning jelly when I was a kid and using parafin wax to seal it.  Freezer jam is so much easier.  My sister in law showed me how and I love it!  It only took me about 1 hour last night to make two batches.  I think this summer I might even try making Peach Jam.  I use the recipe on the Sure-Jell box and it is so easy.  Then we have homemade jam all year long!

Well I know this is a short post, but the bills are calling my name and my eyes are already closing.  Another weekend gone by and another week will begin.  Have a good one!
