ladydusk: The Simple Woman's Daybook for January 30, 2012

FOR TODAY

Outside my window... it's cold, frosty, and snowy.

I am thinking... about getting school started and how I wish I had done more planning last week.

I am thankful... that we can muddle through even without the planning.

In the kitchen... I made Ina Garten's Panna Cotta. It was easy, tasty, and a hit! I think I want to try with coconut milk and tropical fruit some other time.

I am wearing... Jammies, but I'm gonna wear jeans and my black shirt in a few minutes.

I am creating... not much of anything.

I am going... to the library and grocery later.

I am wondering... at God's willingness to be a helper and refuge. What a great God He is!

I am reading... still working on Words to Eat By. I've got to finish it by next Monday!

I am hoping... to have a better week of lessons.

I am looking forward to... book club next week.

I am learning... about leeks.

Around the house... well, things kinda fell apart last week while I was sick, so there's a lot to catch up on, in particular folding and ironing (you knew that was coming, didn't you?)

I am pondering... Loving the Little Years and how to talk to, encourage, and give grace to my children.

A favorite quote for today...

One of my favorite things... well, Panna Cotta is now pretty high on the list ...

A few plans for the rest of the week... pretty quiet week planned.

A peek into my day...
