I used to fritter my Saturdays away and then have a ton of stuff to get done on Sunday. Add church to that and I started my Monday workweek exhausted. I've made myself get to the things that need doing on Friday and Saturday. It's taken a lot of work to break my habits but the Sunday totally off sure feels good! Dinner sure sounds good! You'll have to show us a pic of your haircut!Susannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02757963698816530787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1069784873554550905.post-17499318846672644212020-01-19T23:00:13.770-06:002020-01-19T23:00:13.770-06:00Thank you for sharing the recipe.

We usually take a nap after church and lunch, and then putter, read, etc. the rest of the day. It's such a blessing to have that down time. <br /><br />We have recipes like that where I make a double batch even though there are only three of us at home. We love them the first time and love the leftovers for lunches. <br /><br />Funny about your grandson's dancing. I can see why they have the rules, but it would have been funny.<br /><br />A new haircut can be invigorating!

I will have to try it but would need to leave the garlic out since my Man does not like garlic. Good for you on being intentional about carving out Sabbath time. It really is such a blessing, isn't it? <br /><br />Have a wonderful weekend.

Tha...Well now i wanna see your new hair cut!!!! 😀<br /><br />That's amusing about your grandson and the picnic table. I do know that as a teacher of preK children, we have to make sure they follow the playground rules as we are held liable if anything happens!! <br /><br />Oooh.....I'm going to make that chicken recipe!! Thanks for posting it. I'll sub broccoli for Brussels sprouts as no one here cares for those. And i will use some honey with a dab of maple syrup as our youngest daughter brought some to us from NH as a Xmas gift. Looks my Sunday after church dinner is all planned!! 😀💕<br /><br />I love setting aside most of Saturday for my Sabbath. I do often have some light chores in the morning but i set aside from 1-7 pm as my sabbath time, when i can. Glad you are doing so well wth it! <br /><br />Happy weekend! <br /><br />Faithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06608258814596465122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1069784873554550905.post-8412487905727682372020-01-17T16:55:00.356-06:002020-01-17T16:55:00.356-06:00Haha...dancing on the picnic table.
