Wow…my schedule over the next few weeks…is pretty crazy. I made a grocery list and did my shop yesterday…and I can’t tell you how much lighter I feel knowing that we are prepared…well…prepared for dinner anyway…for the next week. 😉 I am at the point where I need a list for all my lists, but …
Wow…this year is flying by! We just turned the calendar to November and before you know it we will be saying good-bye to 2017.
