The birthday celebration was fun. I totally pulled off the homemade lasagna. As in, I couldn't even believe that I made it! Which is pretty shocking considering the fact that I almost screwed it up at least 3 times.
The recipe is supposed to make 2 trays. I got 2 trays, but the 2nd was really skimpy on the sauce part. I froze the 2nd for an emergency pull-out-of-the-freezer meal for the kids. I labeled it "T's birthday lasagna...the screwed up tray." No way I'll be able to confuse it with something else with that label. I'm a genius. Now if I could only figure out how to make german chocolate cake like my mother-in-law.
This is the last week of school. I cannot wait to be home for the summer with my children! One of the main reasons I became a teacher was so I could have the same hours as my children. 4 days and counting...
I have a lot of things I want to accomplish this summer. I've been so conditioned the past 6 years with having to keep a strict schedule at school that I know I'll function better at home and be more productive if I set some kind of loose schedule for myself.
On the to-do-list are the following:
- finish organizing house
- get back on the treadmill immediately
- smock
- possibly learn how to pleat and construct a bishop
- visit the Farmer's Market a lot and freeze vegetables for winter
- cook/freeze casseroles
- learn how to use the monogram feature on my sewing machine
- learn how to applique
- win the powerball
- stop listing things now because I'm already running out of summer just thinking about it
THE END for now
