Hey everyone! Happy Sunday!
I think this is my most frugal day ever...

Baked 2 loaves of bread
Baked 2 batches of Peanut Butter cookies
Making Sun Tea
Dishes... then more dishes!
Dusting and tidying up
Mopping & Vacuuming
Took out garbage
Cleaned up yard and scooped doggy doo-doo
Played with Tyler... then played some more!

My SIL and her 2 kids are coming for supper.... Making this recipe I found on another forum. I'll let ya know how it comes out. We're having it with fried potatoes and homemade bread. Yummy!

Making Mac N Cheese too, for the 3 kids.

*Creamy Ranch Pork Chops & Rice*

1 tbsp. vegetable oil
4 boneless pork chops, 3/4" thick
1 can (10 3/4 oz.) Cream of Mushroom Soup
1/2 soup can milk
1 pkg. (1 oz.) ranch salad dressing mix
Paprika
Ranch-Style Rice

HEAT oil in skillet. Add chops and cook until browned.
ADD soup, milk and 1/2 pkg. salad dressing mix. Heat to a boil. Cover and cook over low heat 5 min. or until done. Sprinkle with paprika.
SERVE with Ranch-Style Rice. Serves 4.

Ranch-Style Rice: Add remaining salad dressing mix to water when making rice.

Hope you all are having a good day. Its sunny here finally and I'm enjoying it!

Got back from the campground around 10:30 after a week at the shore with the kiddies. Spent the whole day doing 1,000 loads of laundry and unloading the camper. The good part is my laundry is done and put away. The bad part is nothing else is. My kitchen is a wreck.

There's always tomorrow, Danielle.

I missed this Sunday thread! LOL

I'll try to remember what I did.

DH and I slept in then made pancakes for breakfast. I took anap, then took a shower and paid bills and balanced the checkbook.

Went to a late lunch with some friends.

Went to DH's grandma's house to celebrate her birthday (74)

Then came home and hit the hay!!!
