Wednesday Routine

Wednesday's is church night so I do not have very much time after I get home from work to do very much so I try and cook a quick supper on Wednesday's nights and planned for light housework.

Soup Bean Casserole

I like this casserole not only because we like it but because you have one pot that you brown your hamburger in, and mix all of your ingredients in as well, and then a cake pan to bake it in. That is all the dishes you need for the casserole. Now any side dishes will be extra of course. It does not have a long baking time and it is cheap to make. Can't beat that!

Brown 1 1/2 lb. hamburger with 1 onion, chopped. Drain excess grease off. Add..



2 cans pinto beans
1 can whole kernel corn, undrained
1 small can tomato sauce
1-16 oz. jar salsa
2 dashes chili powder

Mix all ingredients well and pour into a 13x9x2 in. baking dish.


1 box Jiffy Cornbread Mix
1 egg
Milk

Mix the above ingredients well. Add enough milk to make the mixture spreadable but not runny.



Pour over hamburger mixture.



Bake, uncovered at 450 for 35 to 40 minutes. I always have to cover mine with foil because my bread starts getting to brown.



Enjoy!

I Don't Like Spiders and Snakes!!

Remember the song? I am changing the title though to add lizards in that! I just hate lizards. They love to live on my porch and dart around faster than a mouse!

I went to shake my kitchen rug and noticed it's tail sticking out from under my Hostas in front of my porch and quietly went back in the house for my camera.

Too late! It was already gone. But wait...


I think I see it. Yep, poking it's little head out from the other side!



Then it got brave and come out more. Look at that blue tail! Just makes me squirm everytime I look! lol

Tuesdays Routine

Change sheets on bed eow.
Zone work.
Prepare menu for next week.

That's it! I will do my morning, afternoon and before bed routine everyday. Now don't get me wrong, these are just guidelines I go by to keep my from getting sidetracked. Somedays life just throws things your way that you have no control over and I am unable to do things like I had planned. On those days I just do what I can and go on. I do not stress over not being able to stick to my routines on those days.

Before Bed Routine

This is my before bed routine each night.

Shine sink and put a clean dish rag and towel out.
Brush teeth and take make up off.
Read a chapter in Proverbs.
Me time!!! Me time is crafting or blogging.
