It’s the day before a 3-day trip to Pennsylvania where we plan, Lord willing, to attend a double wedding where two of my cousins plan to get married the same day.
Packing for a trip is something that I always look forward to, although it does take some effort. Daughter Julia has been waiting for days for the time to arrive when she can pack her clothes, dolls, toys,and such.
The alarm roused me out of a deep sleep at 5:30 a.m. Fifteen minutes later Daniel and I were sitting side by side on the couch having devotions together. Next was breakfast time. Daniel made several pieces of toast on the griddle while I fried a few eggs.
As we were finishing breakfast, Daniel mentioned that he’ll need to leave for work in five minutes. Quickly, I jumped up and packed his lunch bucket as swiftly as possible. Soon he was on his way.
Returning to the house I debated as to what should be tackled first. I spotted my coverings that need to be washed. After giving them a good scrubbing and rinsing them I tied the covering strings to a hanger, then hung them out to dry. As I stepped outside I couldn’t help but marvel at the freshness of the morning, my favorite part of the day. I quietly talked to God and trusted my day into His hands.
Returning inside I decided to pack Daniel and my clothing while the children slept. I had so much fun. I like matching with Daniel but, of course, we don’t always have enough of the same colors to always do so.
I had most of our packing done by the time the children woke up. After giving them breakfast, I helped Julia pack her clothes. I also had a dress to hem for myself, which I plan to wear at the wedding.
Daniel and I were asked to be servers at the wedding with me needing to wear deep lavender. I didn’t have a dress that color so I had to borrow one from a friend. Since I am a “shortie,” I had to hem it a few inches in order to be able to wear it.
As I sewed, Austin was progressively becoming more restless. As my patience was being tested, my list of things to do stood still. I prayed, telling God that I really need his wisdom and help. Soon after that things being flowing more smoothly. I decided that maybe an early lunch would be a blessing so that’s what we did. I made one of my standby soups consisting of butternut squash puree with green beans and meat chunks.
Daniel came home from work at 3 p.m and took the children outside, giving me a chance to get ahead with my list of wrapping up the packing and doing some basic cleaning. Soon it was time for supper, baths, and haircuts for Austin and Daniel.
Last on my list was making some seasoned crackers to snack on during the 550-mile trip to Pennsylvania tomorrow. Of all things, Julia fell asleep on the couch before I had all the “musts” crossed off my list. I decided the crackers would have to be eaten plain. Perhaps you will now be the ones to make this salty, tasty treat instead of me.
SEASONED CRACKERS
1 pound saltine crackers
1 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons cheddar cheese powder
1 cup sour cream mixed with one tablespoon onion powder (or ranch powder)
2 tablespoons chicken soup base
Pour crackers into a large mixing bowl. Mix remaining ingredients together. Pour mixture over crackers and stir well. Bake 20 minutes at 250 stirring several times. A very good snack!Read more at:http://www.marieprom.co.uk/black-prom-dresses | http://www.marieprom.co.uk/pink-prom-dresses-uk |
