A Plus Pies, Cakes and More

After two weeks of break from school we still have two more weeks to go. I have done some baking, but I've been concentrating on my house and finishing the up stairs so we can move into the Master bedroom. We decided to add a closet and desk space to the Master bedroom



The desk space will be to the left of the closet. I'll be finishing up the last few coats of spackling today and tomorrow, then hopefully sanding will go smoothly and I should be able to paint Saturday night or early next week. After that I can put bead board on the knee walls and trim the doors and move in, before I go back to school on the 18th. That's two weeks so I should be able to.

Christmas was lots of fun, my two little girls had a lot of fun opening their presents. We went to my mom's that day, after we opened things. What a good dinner we had, there was BBQ'D spare ribs, and potatos, corn, a few different types of salads. Then for desert we had lots of good stuff. I made the pies and we had, Pumpkin, Sour Cherry and Blueberry, and Billy made the pecan pie filling. We had angel food jello cake and as always ice cream.

Since the semester ended I've made cookies and bread twice, pies numerous times. I am starting to think I should just make our own bread and stop buying it but that probably will not happen for a long time, due to the lack of time.
