Baking and Cleaning
Today has been a good day so far. I got to sleep in which was awesome! I've spent the day reading, watching Harry Potter movies, cleaning and baking.
I have worked today cleaning the kitchen and bathroom and working on laundry. We will probably have another load ready to go tomorrow...but we are 3 down and one on the way.
I decided that today I was going to make some of my favorite snacking food today: Little Smokies! I had them at my bridal shower...that's how much I like them. They are good and I didn't have to share.
I also did a little baking today. I made pumpkin muffins. I decided that this year I wasn't going to bake a pumpkin, so I used canned pumpkin instead. As I was gathering my ingredients, I realized we didn't have any shortening. I was debating between substituting margarine and then coming out bad or going to the store and getting shortening. I was nervous that my substitution would make them turn out bad, and since I bought the last can of pumpkin yesterday, so I gave in and went to the store. They have turned out pretty well. Need to add a few more raisins next time, but I am proud of how they turned out...and how they taste!
