Lots to update, as always! I suffer from blogging procrastination. Anyway lets see. School is out so I have my 6.5 year old home. This makes for fun days which I enjoy for the most part, excepting the fussing with her sis, which gets old fast.
We finally got the garden going. It took forever with all the rain we’ve had. I think final count was close to six weeks straight. I am so glad that is done. Here are pic’s of our garden. See the wild bunny, so cute but she’s gonna eat my veggies so we’ll have to fence it next.

Much like many others the economy has begun to hit us. Dh was cut back at his job from supervisor to fitter/welder. Were still feeling grateful though because its still a job. The money cut hurts though. So I do what I can to stretch things more. Today I am making stew. I tend to forget stews when we are doing well financially. But there is no denying the value of throwing a bit of this and that together for a tasty meal. So today’s recipe is
Beef stew
2lb of ground beef from aldi’s
6 potatoes sliced
1 onion
some garlic
1 can of green beans
1 can of corn
1 can of tomatoes
A couple handfulls of baby carrots I got on sale.
And some various seasonings I had on hand.
Salt, pepper, meat marinade, and italian seasoning
One big stewpot and enough water to cover plus a bit.
This will be tasty and feed us a couple days at least.

Beware of DS right now. They have a malware virus running rampant, and can’t or won’t seem to fix the problem. Looking for an alternative cloth diaper website? Check out Cloth Diaper Nation
