I loved today. The first of our 5 day long weekend. Let me step you through my productive, relaxing & enjoyable day.
6:00am - Woke up, looked at the time, said hell no, rolled over and went back to sleep :)
8:30am - Got up, got dressed, went into husby's study and joined in talking on the webcam to his family (who live in Texas)
10:00am - Started making some paper flower embellishments for my shop whilst still chatting with the husby's family... I'll list them soon.
11.30am - Realised how late it was and finished up our conversation with husby's family, headed downstairs and had something to eat
12 noon - Watched "Megamind" - which was surprisingly hilarious. Would definitely recommend it.
1:30pm - Cleaned the kitchen and made a Shortbread cookie dough - and popped it in the fridge.
2:00pm - Started doing something I've wanted to do since we moved in 1 1/2 years ago. Scrubbed the exterior of ALL the doors and drawers in my kitchen. They were dirty when we moved in!! Gross I know, but because it was on the outside it didn't bother me so much after a while!!
3:30pm - Made Chocolate Mousse for dessert :)
4:00pm - Started rolling, cutting out and baking the shortbread. I also watched another DVD whilst baking - which is why it took me so long to make the cookies.... I watched a movie that I already can't remember the name of.. BLAST!
Anyway, I am a self confessed cookie burner. I have tried a few times in the past few months to conquer cookies, and not burn them. Here's how they turned out.
5:30pm - Made dinner with husby. It was delicious. Steaks cooked on the BBQ, eggs, bacon, tomato & onion & a couple of chips. Not exactly WW friendly.. but it's Easter!! It will be a weekend of delicious foods here and there. We ate on the couch and watched ANOTHER DVD!! Sorcerer's Apprentice I think it was. It was OK. Few things were unfinished in the movie.. but I'll get over it :)
8:30pm - Cleaned up kitchen and came upstairs, and cleaned my craft room... to a certain degree. A friend recently moved to the other side of the country and offered me a few bags of fabrics she no longer wanted. I of course accepted :) But am yet to unpack it all and find hangers to put it on and put in my wardrobe. Maybe tomorrow???
9:00pm - Discover cookie dough in my rings and feel ill
9:15pm - Listen to my new Josh Groban CD... and work on a few more flowers.
Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings. Don't you just love Public Holidays!!!
What did you get up to today?
