Exchange Students -Hosting

This week both of my girls have been a little cranky. My exchange student has actually admitted that she has been a couple of times. Of course, the American daughter doesn't admit it. The worst part is that they are cranky to each other. Now, don't get me wrong, they aren't fighting or anything like that. They just snap at each other a little more than they have been.
Right now at 4:30 PM in the afternoon on a Saturday they are sleeping.  There is a good reason for that, they went to a lock-in at church last night, came home to shower and off they went to work a fish fry at the Masonic Lodge.
My exchange daughter is participating on the tennis team at school now. She had a scrimmage meet early last week. I am excited for her first real match to happen this coming week.

Sunday Coupon Inserts 3/27

This Sunday (3/27) there should be (3) inserts in your Sunday newspaper.
(2) SmartSource   -- 3/27 SS
(1) Red Plum  -- 3/27 RP

If you are new to couponing label each insert with the date and initials (3/27 SS or 3/27 RP.) Everyone sorts differently. This works for me.

Take A Minute Tuesday


It's time to stop and take a minute on Tuesday!

I want to rant about the time change that took place last week! I can not get caught up. I have overslept every day! This is the hardest because of course we lost an hour. I don't get a lot of sleep anyway and loosing an hour that I will never get back...UGH. So, to take this to a more positive line...I love Spring! 
The windows are open, the dogs are up and about more often. The cat wants outside, then inside, and outside, and inside. I get exercise just letting the cat in and out, lol. I want to plant so bad. Hopefully later today I will be able to do some planting. Now that's taking a minute in my book. Have a Happy Day!

What's On The Table This Week

My menu planning doesn't always work out with whats planned, but I still end up better off for the planning. I was so busy last week I think the only thing I cooked was the Irish Champs and sausage. Of course since the leprechaun visited us, (He comes in the weee hours of the night and colors our milk green,) the Champs was green. LOL I also put way too much milk in the recipe. I had doubled it and did the same for the milk, then I had to cook it longer to heat some of the liquid away. Our exchange student is having a really hard time with the green milk. lol Picture below.


I have a little more time this week. I will do an omelet one day but I think we will declare this week SANDWICH WEEK.

Monday        Egg Salad Sandwiches
Tuesday        Chicken Salad Sandwiches
Wednesday   Omelet
Thursday      Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup
Friday            Tuna Sandwiches
Saturday        I have no idea- nobody stays home to eat
Sunday           Hot Dogs, Chips, Macaroni and Cheese
