Indeed.

I've cleaned the living room, dining room and kitchen.

Still have laundry to do and the bathroom to clean.

And the den is really messy.

Good morning everyone, Happy Friday!

Found the BEST recipe yesterday for butternut squash. It's a savory dish that can stand alone or be served as a side. I get tired of squash and butter with cinnamon or nutmeg and don't make a lot of creamy soups. This recipes is a keeper. I got it off allrecipes.com. As you can see it's a very forgiving recipe. I used what I had on hand instead of going to the store.

Ingredients

1 (4 pound) butternut squash - peeled, seeded, and cubed
1/3 yellow onion, minced
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil (I used coconut oil)
1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme (I used Italian Seasoning)
6 ounces crumbled blue cheese (I used pepper jack cheese)
sea salt and ground black pepper to taste
1/4 cup Italian bread crumbs (I used panko)

Directions

Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
Toss the squash, onion, olive oil, 1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs, thyme, and blue cheese in a large mixing bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the mixture into a large baking dish. Sprinkle 1/4 cup bread crumbs over the squash.
Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned on top, 35 to 40 minutes. (I baked it for an hour, hey I was busy on BYC)

darn that frozen pizza stuck with me all night...


and who knew? If you get up when the alarm clock goes off your kids can actually make the bus???


and when will my 5 year old remember to flush?


and I thought I had something else to say but I forget...could be that I fell asleep at 4:30 after I caved and took some pain pills but then thats when the mama cat decided to whoop butt on her two frisky kittens...I guess they're playing but she sounds mad at times? but then she keeps hiding and waiting for them to get close....cats are wierd.


I really thought I had something else to say? ...could be that I was gonna go ha ha...I'm up? and the first one to post this am?

^ ha ha deb beat me!

Morning Maple!

oh yeah... deb's first line reminded me...


Why didn't you all remind me that today was friday, yesterday? I lost a day. So that means I did not put out my garbage and anyway, my child studied for her 2 tests but I would have pushed more but that's ok, cuz we got up with the alarm and we went over them this am before the bus got here...I even made a study sheet with pics and all to help her with her social study test. I feel a wee bit happy with myself for putting in the extra effort.

I don't know how she's gonna do though...seems like a foreign concept kinda, you know?

She can't even say House of Repretentatuhtives...

and the definition of soveriegn is independent but she didn't know what that meant either...so is it wrong that I used cats as an example of what independent means?

I really hope she does well enough.
