Time to plan

So, during these cold days it gives us time to research, plan, research again, plan some more... in this process, I found these:

Reusable canning lids

I'm so excited to try them!  Canning all together is going to be another learning experience, but one I'm willing to be challenged by - it can't be any worse than potty training 4 kids, right?  Right?  *gulp*  ; )

Tonight we'll be purchasing our organic seeds for the garden, which will at least make us feel like Spring is somewhere around the corner! (despite the freezing temps, snow & ice on the ground...)  Can you tell I love Winter?  ; )

I also need to take advantage of these "inside days" and start sewing spring/summer skirts for the girls.  So, a material run will be in my near future.  I could go nuts in those stores!  I already have patterns, so now I have no excuse...

Today is the feast of the apostle who replaced Judas...

St. Matthias, pray for us!
