PROJECT 365 - Week Six

Joining both groups--Sara's Project 365

&

Sunday 1/31

ONCE the two main colors of my prayer shawl were completed...it was time to start trimming with the beige scallops...took me quite a while but I could see the end of the tunnel for the project.



Monday, 2/1

Hit the grocery store and got a great deal on a boneless pork roast...it was easy getting it ready for the 'crock pot' after searing each side...

Our family likes fresh veggies, especially with a slowly-cooked roast, so I cleaned a large batch of kale...cooked down with onions, bacon and butter...then simmered in broth until wonderfully soft and flavorful. Kale doesn't have as pungent an odor as the other greens.

While the roast was cooking, leftover chicken, tomatoes and olives topped my lunch salad

AFTER lunch, I finished the shawl...(had to make a few pictures so I could remember it)...it will be handed over at the church soon for someone's use on cold days or in cold situations

( NO PICS for February 2nd through the 5th...certainly not my best week for 365...finally today I remembered to pick up my camera.)


Saturday, 2/6

Below is a picture of our sleet that occurred just before lunch today...we came SO CLOSE to getting some snow but unfortunately we didn't get any.


WITH IT BEING SO RAINY AND COLD, A FEW THINGS CALLED MY ATTENTION...LAUNDRY, CLEANING OUT SOME LEFT-OVERS, FIXED BARBECUE SANDWICHES FOR LUNCH. HOW ABOUT A DOUBLE-CHOCOLATE, WALNUT BROWNIE CAKE?? IT'S DENSE...BUT WHAT A MOUTHFUL OF CHOCOLATEY LUSCIOUSNESS :)

ENJOY YOUR WEEK 7...LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING YOUR PICTURES,TOO.
