a merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance

this and that Friday

I just found this idea while randomblogging.  the link HERE was on a homestead blog but I can't remember which one. I think I'm going to try doing this today as I have the day off.

I also need to pick up some bulbs. I may see if my husband will buy me some this weekend. I'd love to get some planted. We have a few tulips left and quite a bit of crocus. I would like to have some daffodils coming up in the spring. when you live in a snowy area such as new england seeing those first flowers is always such a treat. 

I always love the way the daffodils look growing along the old stone walls. It's one of the prettiest sights. I don't have a stone wall but they will look plenty cheery growing along my small house.

I never did finish making my soup yesterday. I have the chicken stock ready to go in the fridge and I only have to de-bone it. that has never been my favorite part. Today I will get that done and we will have soup for dinner tonight. For some reason my bread didn't bake all the way in the bread maker. I'm sure I pressed the wrong button on the menu. I had a feeling I was doing something wrong but I couldn't figure out what it was. I am going to try again today. It's pretty sad when you mess up bread in a bread-maker!

Today is a walking day. I plan on going through the woods with my camera. I love doing that. It's been sort of warm so I will be bringing the bug spray. We have had some triple E around and I don't want to take any chances.

My husband is out hunting this morning. Yesterday he brought home 4 mallards. I think I will cook them in the crock pot next week. Perhaps I'll try a gumbo with them.  He will probably bring more home today so I'd better start looking for recipes.

Don't feel too bad, I've done this too! My favorite bread maker recipe is one you mix in th machine but then bake in the oven.
Hope you have a great day!
