What Are You Puttering With Today?

[Lisa Loves Shiny]

Anything fun or interesting?

Today I made bird suet for the woodpeckers and beeswax tealight candles. A day you can spend puttering around is the best day ever in my book.

So far (its 9.14 monday)
Its procrastination

But i want to make bread today and i have about 10 things i really need to do

I'm bleaching my roots. Such a pain, but so nice when it's done. I'm done with the bleach part, then I applied three different shades of toner, and now I have a deep-conditioning mask on. I'm never entirely sure how each touch-up is going to turn out, but I know it will look better than the black, orange, and yellow look that happens when I haven't done my roots for 6 weeks and the color has faded!

Just got back from a wonderful hike where we spotted a gorgeous Blue Heron. So I guess you could say we were puttering with nature and always in awe of the amazing wildlife around us.

I'm going to make a pie for my DH.
It's a certain kind of 'birthday' for him, 17 years sober, so he needs a treat!

That Is one tremendous feat!
Not one to be ignored or glossed over. Until one has been seriously addicted to a substance or constantly around an addict at their lowest you will never understand the fight or will they have to live and push on.

Most people start because of a tremendous pain they feel and try to self medicate. These people have pushed everyday for years to try and keep themselves here.

"Junkies" & "Drunks" who have overcame that are my heros!!

I did a lot of housecleaning today! So much laundry and changed the sheets. I had to work for a few hours as well but was able to do it remotely, thank goodness! Not an exciting day here either.

Mom taught me to make pie crust a long time ago.
The trick is ---use real Crisco, and don't handle it too much.
The fluted edge was real pretty before I baked it, but the crust tends to puff a little, and the fluting gets distorted!

I always wanted to make candles or soap.
Maybe one day I will try it!

Crisco is solid vegetable shortening, or vegetable fat. The white stuff in a can or tub that you add to pastry.
Similar to something called you have called Kremelta, Sunnfry?
