It’s Sunday morning…and we’re not going to church. My big girl is sick. I hope she gets over it quickly. We’re doing lots of broth, coconut oil, elderberry syrup and diffusing oils. Hopefully that does the trick and everyone else stays healthy.
On the flip side my little one is such a happy baby today (after a week of being so fussy) and only got up ONCE in the night! I think we figured out more food stuff a little bit. Hopefully we can keep her calm and happy now.
This will be another busy week, but we’ll see how long the illness lasts and if it gets passed around…we may have to cancel some plans. I have some errands to run, we’re getting our furnace inspected, plus our usual activities.
We went to the orchard yesterday so now I’m ready to start baking and freezing squash. I’d like to do some baking with apples as well. But, again, we’ll see how the week goes. I also want to start making some of the baked goods for our baptism celebration.
Depending on how we’re feeling I may modify some meal plans to make sure we’re getting lots of broth. I already plan to roast chicken and make another batch of broth and serve soup. But I may need to add even more to the menu.
If you’re on Facebook I posted tons of great information from fellow bloggers the last couple days. Be sure to head over to my page and check it out. On the blog I posted about emotions and eating and four ways to make honey mustard. Check back tomorrow. There is a giveaway coming!
