Pantry Re-Do End Day 1

That was a lot of moving things around! At the same time I was moving things I was taking a current inventory as I put it all back on the shelves. That made it take a little more time. I do have a very detailed inventory list already but it still took time to update. (Now I just have to transfer my numbers to the computer.)

Here is a picture diary of today. What remains is making shelves for the canned foods you see on the table. That is going to be a while, so for now I will be happy with what I did get done.

One Cleared

Stuff from first shelf. No room left for second shelf. Hmmm.

Instead of working from right to left I worked left to right.

I see a clearing!


All put together.
Still have to make shelves for home canned foods.


I love seeing all the food preserved.

Love my labels!
Labels and half gallon Mason jars. Heaven.

Still had room for some of my small appliances. Hooray!

Sweet Yeast Rolls

These are by far my favorite roll! They do take me a little more time than my regular yeast bread recipe but very worth it. This recipe makes alot. That's okay. The rolls can be popped in the microwave for a few seconds the next day or two and taste just as good. Or....take part of the dough and fry it. YUM!! I usually end up with 15 rolls, 1.5 pound loaf of bread and plenty of fried bread from this recipe. There is always the option of rolling the dough out and making cinnamon rolls. This recipe would be quite versatile. I just haven't played with it much yet. In time.... I haven't tried freezing the dough, I might do that soon. I will let you know how that turns out. 1 package dry active yeast 1/2 cup warm water 2 cups milk, scalded, cooled to lukewarm 1/2 cup sugar 7-8 cups of flour 2 tablespoons softened butter 2 eggs 2 teaspoons salt PRINT RECIPE Soften yeast in water with a teaspoon or so of the sugar. See the heart? Add milk, sugar and 3 cu

Skunk Off and a story

Image
 Many times you know a split second before it happens. You feel helpless. Perhaps even yell out "NO!!" Then it permeates the air. You choke. Your poor dog is yelping, running straight for the door to get back inside. What are you going to do? Run to the store to buy an expensive product? Tomato juice? No. Febreeze? No. Repeated baths? No. The solution? Make your own vet recommended wash. Mom reminded me of this today. I have no idea how our conversation even ended up on skunk smell. Sometimes our conversations go in very strange directions. But we're both eccentric so that's okay. Several years ago a vet recommended this combination to us and then recently another vet recommended it to my Mom when her dog got sprayed. She was smart enough to write the recipe down. Thank you Mom! No, my dogs didn't get sprayed. I worry though because every once in a while I get the pungent aroma of skunk in the neighborhood. I don't lie to myself and think it

Open letter to President Trump

Image
Dear Mr. President; My husband came back from his second tour in Iraq. Within a few short months I knew something was terribly wrong. His command used every excuse they could other than he was truly ill. After begging for a year he got a referral to neurology. After one test he was diagnosed with dementia. Later to be determined that it was Lewy Body Dementia. The doctor put him on profile, command rejected it. Not once but many times. He was repeatedly punished, his rank was stripped from him, sentenced time and again to 45 days of extra duty. This is 18 hour days, 7 days a week. (Stress makes dementia worse.) I finally got him medically retired in August 2014. February 4, 2015, not quite six months since his retirement I received a phone call that his treatment had sparked an Army wide internal investigation. They tried to talk to him but by now he was incapable of complete conversations. February 8, 2015 my husband, the man his command refused to believe was gravely sick, died. N
