The sun is finally out, and the temperatures are bearable. Sam is loving the sunshine.
To take advantage of the stove still going, I made the morning of catching up on my baking. I made enough bread to last through the end of the month I think. I made four small loaves and two regular sized. We don't eat as much unless we have a family dinner, so I should be set.
I also made use of the oven by making two dozen rolls. One dozen I experimented with and added finely chopped onion on top mixed with melted butter just before putting in the oven. I took the two canisters of rolls Jess bought to long ago and baked those. One was crescents that I laid flat and added pepperoni before rolling up, the other were cinnamon rolls. I put all those in the freezer too. I managed to make sugar cookies, one bag in the freezer, the other I added a giant chocolate melt left from Christmas cookies.
After all the clean up and regular housework, I headed outside for two and a half hours for yard work. I had made a new list for the year, and started in on that. I cleared around one of the bird bushes in the front yard, attempted to fix the driveway where people run all over the grass,
and weeded two of the many gardens I have made. I am happy to see the weeds are staying at bay up by the water well garden.
There are a few strawberry plants that made it through too.
Thought I better move the chickens over to the summer house too since we should be ordering the meat birds soon.
