June Goal Update!

I have been trying to look back at my past goals in order to make sure that there is not anything important that I forgot to do...

After re-reading June's goal list (see below) I have found that I actually was able to accomplish most of the things that I set out to do.

I listed to an audio book that I got from the library, The 100 Ways to Bring Out Your Best
I read MORE then 2 books (Including 50 Shades of Grey!)
I spent a multitude of time with family and friends, including a 3 day weekend celebrating 
        my grandma's birthday, and a week at Cub Lake with friends on the boat!
I hit my Earning Goal of $1,000 for Surveys and I am on track for another good month!


June Goals
Re-commit to the Money Saving Mom's 4 Weeks to Organized Challenge
Try 1 New Recipe Each Week, Including Homemade Pizza Pockets
Listen to at Least 1 Audio Book
Read 2 Books, Hopefully 1 of them is 50 Shades of Grey, I keep hearing Wonderful Things!
Spend More Time with Friends and Family, and My "Little"
Continue Towards My Survey Earnings Goal of $1,000 (I am hoping to Hit It this Month!)
Move to a Complete Cash Budget (Except for Gas in My Car...I hate Going In!)


There are a few things that I need to get done that were left on the list, as well as some habits that I need to work on to make sure that I am being the best me that I can be.


Do you ever take a look behind you to see how far you have come and to see what you still need to work on?  What have you been procrastinating on?

Caramel Apple Pie

While my 1st attempt at making Apple Pie was not a full failure, it was not the prettiest site, as all of the edges were burnt...completely black. I made another pie yesterday, which I covered with foil while baking, and had a great turnout!  We even started eating it before I remember to take a picture, so here it is partially eaten! I used a frozen pie crust and filled it with the apple mixture (recipe below) and then covered with a Pillsburry Rolled Pie Crust that I cut into pieces and created a lattice pie topper.  I then drizzled caramel on top while the pie was still warm so that it would soak in.  The finished project...delicious!  Even my husband (a pie snob) loved it. Apple Mixture (Recipe from Pillsbury) 6 Cups Thinly Sliced, Peeled Apples 3/4 Cup Sugar 2 Tablespoons All-Purpose Flour 3/4 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon 1/4 Teaspoon Salt 1/8 Teaspoon Nutmeg 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice Mix All Ingredients Together and Spoon Into Pie Crust, Cove...

Ready for Autumn?!

When school starts, that means it's time for the routines to set in, new schedules and activities to begin, and best of all....the weather to cool off and Fall Fun can Begin! I love jeans, sweatshirts, boots, bonfires, apple cider, pumpkin patches, even football.  Give me anything and everything fall!  However, this heat wave does not pair well with warm doughnuts and apple cider - it just makes for bees and overheating.  The pumpkin patches aren't as fun because you don't have on jeans and boots and crisp weather to make it more fun.  The barns stink from the heat when you are trying to feed the cows and enjoy the animals around the farm. This weekend we are going to make our Fall Bucket List and wish for a little chill in a the air so we can enjoy this beautiful season of life we are given.   We will continue to make new goals, improve on our good habits, and find new ways to love each other to the fullest.

Happy Mother's Day

This will be another fun holiday to celebrate, in quarantine. Luckily, things are starting to loosen up around our area so we are able to spend quality time with some of the family that we normally celebrate with, I was gifted a beautiful cart that we have had for close to 10 years sitting in our backyard.  My husband refurnished and repurposed it into a garden area for me so that I can enjoy my plants, without rabbits eating them, and without having to bend over to weed them and take care of them.  I also get the bonus of it having wheels, so when it decides that it is going to snow in the middle of May, I can just wheel it into the garage! This afternoon B decided to decorate the side of it with chalk, telling me how much she loves me, and that I am the best Mommy.  I planted tomatoes, mint, rosemary, kale and cucumbers.  Let's see how much of a green thumb I actually have! I was also given some lavender plants, as I have fell in love with lavender ove...
