Busy Saturday

 Saturday is often a busy day and today is no exception. I made marmalade using 2 oranges which I cooked up then added half a jar of oversweet bought marmalade. By mixing the two I find the result much much more to my liking.  DH would much rather have jam on his toast. I made 3 little jars using cherries we froze last summer.  I have bread dough rising and apple crisp in the oven right now.


 One of my children brought me this pretty bouquet earlier in the week.


 Then these were delivered today. My family knows how I love flowers. 


 It was a good day for DH and Youngest to do more power washing. My garden shed got nice and clean. I think it was 2 years ago the last time it was washed so it was very necessary. Maybe tomorrow I'll put the bird feeder and pots back in front of it. 

That's about all I have to write about today.  I better check if the breadmaker has finished with my dough so I can get that on pans.  Thanks for visiting.

  8. How lovely that your family brings you flowers. Your jam and marmalade making sound delicious. It's a good thing you had the shed washed yesterday - today has been steady with rain and I'm assuming the same for you.

  9. I finished my shed painting during the sunny and warm day that we had, fortunately because now it’s back to cold and rainy ! Your jam sounds good you did a lot on Saturday. Nice to get flowers 🌺
