Still trying to get the blog figured out! Can't seem to move my pictures so next time I am going to add the pictures and then write my story! Be patient with me!
Strawberry Pickin'This morning Emma and I got up and went to a few garage sales. Found some good buys- Emma was tickled pink with her new Barbie and 5 outfits to go with her. Thought I had scored a brand new Costco nativity set for $25 (originally about $50). Set it aside to go and pay for it and the lady in front of me had just wrote a check for it. Next time lady take the item with you. Don't leave it sitting on the table for someone else to come along and buy. Also found a pack-n-play for KayDee for $5!
After the few garage sales we went to it was then time to go pick strawberries. I should have know that Emma wouldn't last very long. Between picking the ones that weren't ripe and eating the ones that were, she didn't contribute much to the 12# we picked. Brought them home and cleaned them up to make strawberry jam! Had lots of berries left over and an angel food cake mix in the cupboard so decided to make an angel food cake to go with the leftover strawberries. Good idea!! Well, turned the oven to 450 degrees, not 350 degrees. After a few minutes smelled something start to burn. Checked the oven and saw the cake was already getting "well done" after just a few minutes in the oven... so much for angel food cake and strawberries. I was actually going to take it to Jennifer cause I told her I would bring her a bowl of strawberries- sorry Jennifer! I guess I'll go buy the already make angel food cake!
Have spent all week getting ready for my garage sale next weekend. If anyone knows anyone that needs girl clothes (size 12 months to 3/4T) send them my way. And I have little girls' shoes galore!!!
Tony's out pressure washing the house and then I get to start painting and washing the outside windows! Work, work, work!
Having a BBQ, fireworks and enjoying the new fire pit Tony built in the backyard on Monday! Happy 4th of July to everyone! Be safe!!
