Productive day...

Hello All! Its been a busy week, but a productive one.  Yesterday was my most productive, I think.  I worked out, went to school, made a flower headband, cooked dinner, made mini apple turnovers, and made playdough.  Since I've started working out, I've had so much energy, I don't know what to do.

School, or one class, has been really stressing me.  I'm very tempted to drop and take it another time and with another teacher.  Ugh, I just want to be done with it already.  A few more classes, and I can finally walk across that stage.

I've been trying to find a hobby besides baking.  So I tried my hand at hand-sewing fabirc flowers for barrettes or headbands.  And I must say I'm liking it.

I made chicken enchiladas for dinner and I've been craving apple turnovers for some time.  I finally made them yesterday and they were super delish.  Maybe I should be going to school for a pastry chef instead of a social worker...lol!

My son was asking for playdough so he could roll it out like making a pie.  I called my Auntie who works at the CDC to get her recipe but she was still at work.  So of course, we googled it and found a pretty good recipe for homemade playdough.  Dame chose the colors he wanted to color his playdough.  And now we have safe, non-toxic playdough.  Goodness, who knew trying to be frugal was so much fun.

So til next time...more adventures in the kitchen and the craft world...
