On ATK today, they had a tip about freezing leftover stock in muffin tins, and then tossing the frozen chunks into a ziplock bag. Genius! (Because I've done the ice tray thing, and the cubes just seem too small to be useful. But a muffin tin is just right!)
Also genius! Now you guys tell me what to have for lunch. I didn't make it to work because the weather was just too awful.
Perkins wants to do both.
Taxes were finished yesterday. by the pro. Oddly we are getting almost the same amount of money back from both the federal and state taxes. By the way, selling old baby bell stocks that were inherited - adds major complications ( and it wasn't that much money in the first place)
I have been taking photos, flickring and then printing to the target. What is extra dangerous? you have to go into target to get the pictures which means spending more $. But honestly, I LOVE IT. Seriously. LOVE.
Sara, when ready, they'll move Noah to a less invasive vent. His respiratory stuff is not as strong as Grace, but I am told by the respiratory therapist that boys tend not to do as well as girls. Not just twins, but in general.
I need to work but I want to nap. Hmm.
I napped, but made myself wake up after a disturbing dream -- I woke up at 9pm, or maybe 10, and my parents were in my apartment! And my father was changing the lightbulb in my bathroom, when it's the living room that needs it, and my mother was being annoying about letting me watch Drive. WTF.
How sara cooks:
huh. That's a big onion. Oh well, might as well use all of it.
t chopping. Crying. Running outside.
Huh. That really was too much onion. I wonder if I have another can of beans. Oh! I do! Needs more chicken and chile, too. Hey, I have that as well.
5 minutes later:
Oh holy, hell, I did it again. Bean soup for months!
I never learn.
Freeze it in a muffin tin!!
I never learn.
But did you hurt yourself?
Freeze it in a muffin tin!!
Or a Ziploc bag!
IOmemeN, both the state and federal taxes are done (I get money back from both, and I gave some money to the CA sea otter fund), the dishwasher has been run, and I did 8 loads of laundry, and even put some of it away, and made a couple of trash/recyling runs. I think that makes it nap time. Yay naptime.
Since it is still hot and would melt a baggie, it's in the fridge to cool and in a day or so, I will freeze individual portions. I mean, it's great that I end up making multiple meals, and in fact, intend to. But I make more multiples than I intended.
