been busy in the kitchen…

I finally used the new steamer basket that I ordered from IKEA… it worked beautifully in the Instant Pot to hard boil some eggs…

it is an easy way to cook them and they always turn out great…

also made crackers from the Oh She Glows app on my phone… they are very tasty and do not have any flour in them…

this is the second time I’ve made them and they came out crisper as I thinned them out more than the first time…

this morning I woke early, but went back to bed for a bit… when I got up I made breakfast and used my cute little steamer again… getting the hang of it more each time I use it…

  
I have committed to eating vegetables at each meal and all I had left this morning were brussel sprouts… so, I had brussel sprouts with poached eggs and IKEA rösti…. very tasty…

ran out and picked up groceries, so now I have lots of vegetables…  also went for a wander in Bed, Bath and Beyond… took quite a while, but was lots of fun…

picked up a rotating container for kitchen utensils… about the fourth one I’ve purchased in the last year or so, but I believe that this might be the last one I have to buy… think it is going to work perfectly…

  
to fit everyone’s schedule we had a late lunch instead of supper, so when the kids left, it was still light…

 
sun was just going down as they headed out… still really cold out, but we’ve really been enjoying some beautiful temperatures…

beloved…

this morning I spent a bit of time in the kitchen… while I was cleaning the stove I was thinking of my beloved…

he had the strongest hands and arms… anything that needed serious scrubbing ended up as his job… that stove would have been spotless had he cleaned it, lol… he could also wring things out so there was no water at all left in them…

 
for breakfast I cooked some spinach in my new cute purple steamer… second time using it and it worked much better than the first time… cleaned up nicely as well… also used some of the frozen spinach for my lunch smoothie… came out great, so I can use frozen next time I run out of fresh, lol…

sun was shining all day, although it was -34 with the wind chill… got a nice shot of a couple of garage roofs which have squirrel paths all over them… not sure I’ve seen tracks on the neighbour’s garage before… 

  
while I was doing laundry I also went through all of the tops in my closet… filled a box with things that are too big… a friend is going to pick them up for a swap event they are having…

  
always happy when I’ve been able to do a bit of decluttering… George would have been proud…
