Sandra at the Diary of a Stay at Home Mom has started her own Happy Homemaker Monday as a way of tying everything all together. I love it - a virtual accounting of the week. I have been wanting to simplify many of the memes I do and this is where I'm going to start. I'm anything but a simple woman, but really do need to simplify my life! So I'm combining many memes into the same post as a way to organize my week.

Outside my window: It's snowing and predicted to snow again tomorrow so I know the day will dawn gray and cold.
On my bedside table/what I'm reading: The Art of Mending by Elizabeth Berg which I'm hoping to finish tonight.
From the Kitchen: World Peace Cookies (salted chocolate) tomorrow for Tuesdays with Dorie and lots of leftovers
Homemaking Tip I'm Sharing: Using mineral oil on your wooden kitchen utensils will extend their life.
On the menu for tonight: CORN (clean out refrigerator night)
New Recipe I'm sharing:
CREAMY STUFFED SHREDDED POTATO CASSEROLE
6 medium Yukon gold potatoes
2 cups sour cream
1 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon minced garlic, jar
1 large bunch green onions, minced
6 tablespoons butter
2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese

Around the House/On my To Do List: Working on the kitchen and all the touch up paint around the house.
What I'm creating: A finished home so we can move forward with our lives and an apron for a swap this week.
In the craft basket: Perpetually sooooooooooo many UFO's and sketches for stained glass pieces that I hope to get to soon.
Looking forward to: SPRING (I'm counting on Punxsatawney Phil this morning) and our upcoming Family Reunion
I am thinking & hoping: That I really need a break from the work around here for a few days, but it's always here staring at me!
Favorite Blog Post of the week: I wish I had had time to do blog reading this week, but I intend to get caught up soon. Bear with me, I'm still working on it.
Favorite photo from last week:
From the learning room: Nothing new this week.
Lesson learned the past few days: Don't take anything for granted. Life is short and precious and cannot be relived.
I am Thankful for: The light at the end of the tunnel being turned on.
On my Prayer List: Our country as we move into a new regime.
Devotionals, Scripture Reading, Key Verses: Proverbs 8:20-23
I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment: That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures. The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.

I always feel so 'perfect homemaker mother' type when I REMEMBER to make some extra and freeze it. ALSO when I go and take it out of the freezer! Kudos to you (smart on the fire pit thing-nothing entertains kids like fire:)
Great thoughts and plans for this week Tamy! I think your recipe sounds delicious! You are a busy girl - you have a lot planned! Will you post a picture of the apron you're making when it's done?
Have a great night!
