What's New: What About My Work-load?

I was getting back some of my blocks of time in my own agenda for my business projects, but most of them went on hold this past week. I assume they will again next week.

So I look forward to a more regular agenda this week. Then, give up some days next week.

Because of the overcast days last week with showers now and then, I didn't get my garden sowing finished. Though, I did fill 4 more rows last night. So hopefully my weeding and watering times will be more regular the rest of this week.

It is hard to guestimate whether I can get the Melon patch all weeded and then seeded by the end of this week, but if not, Ernie and Dori may be willing to help with that. Also the extra flowers I want to sow in the front yard flowerbeds.

Ah... and the sunflowers in the back alley against the fence. But there are giant weeds to pull there first!

I have some indoor projects for Ernie too, if there will be enough time.

Two projects for my gratis clients have been eating up my "free time." I sincerely hope those can be finished this week too. They have been eating up my business hours. Perhaps more on those next week when they are solved/completed.

Hey, I sincerely hope you are able to get everything done that is on your to-do list. Even when it is not all for yourself.

And if you get visitors - may they bless you heartily as mine did this past week!

Oh, I should add that two diecast models sold recently even before I've got my marketing plan in action!

<*> TIPS & SOLUTIONS: <*>

"Did YOU KNOW" Food Tips

1. Slicing onions and garlic cloves and baking them on cookie sheets before mixing into a recipe brings out a sweetness so you can do without adding sugar to the recipe.

2. Make a basic tomato sauce, (which you can use with many other menu options, eg. pasta, veggies, cabbage rolls, cream soup, meatballs, etc.) but be sure to strain out the seeds. (Seeds make a sauce taste bitter!) Add your favourite herbs and spices, baked/browned onions and garlic cloves, and heat the sauce up to a rolling boil, but guard against burning it.

When cooled, pour the sauce into portion-sized containers to freeze. (Use within 6 months!)

Ready to use? Defrost frozen block of sauce in microwave or toaster oven, add your choice of meat, pasta, veggies, etc. Presto! Meals with variety!
