If you are a close friend of mine, you already know I am super planner obsessed.
Like, I'm not joking here.

I own an Erin Condren Life Planner.
I monthly plan
Weekly plan
Daily plan

My grandma does the calendar system. I think this was a definite trend back in the day. A very wise trend that has since evolved today into big business for the planning community.

There are bullet journals, travelers notebooks, schedulers, academic planners, teacher planners, wedding planners. There are even planning systems.

There are even planning "styles"

It's a rabbit hole.

I do sticker planning. I love my stickers. I have icon stickers, appointment stickers, bill due stickers, decorative stickers, todo lists, meal planning etc. There is a sticker for everything!

It's not perfect and sometimes I still forget things like taking something out of the freezer for dinner. This usually results in eye rolling from my husband who then asks if I had it in my planner.

cough, jerk, cough cough

The good thing about setting up a planner system is feeling peace! 

There is something that connects your thoughts when you take pen to paper. It creates good habits. It releases stress from questioning yourself. You can unload some mental information to a planner page. Getting your to-do's in a list and checking them off is the best thing!

Go to Google or YouTube and check out some planner people!
There is a wonderful community of planners here to help you find some planner peace.

7 May 2018 - Mary Had a Little Lamb.....Had...

Tips on Buying Lamb "A reference to "spring lamb"may make your mouth water - and well it should." Lamb is typically thought of as a seasonal meat with celebrations of Passover and Easter where lamb is usually eaten. A spring lamb is usually 3-5 months old so that the meat is very tender. Anything at the store that is labeled "LAMB" is a sheep that is a year or younger. These lambs are sometimes only milk fed. So keep these in mind as we keep talking about how to choose meet from a baby sheep. Meat from a lamb is taken from one month to one year. Lamb Chops, Leg of Lamb, and Lamb Shank are the most popular cuts. These cuts are perfect for dry-heat cooking, broiling, or roasting. You can find some delicious recipes here! Go ahead... Take a peek and eat one of these adorable babies You monsters.

30 January 2018 - Scotch Woodcock Two Ways...and more

Scotch Woodcock - Two Recipes "From Mrs. Beeton's nineteenth century homemaking guide: Spread hot buttered toast thinly with anchovy paste. Pour over a sauce made by stirring three beaten egg yolks into 1/4 pint cream, bring to a boiling point, but do not allow to boil or the sauce will curdle." This is a traditional Victorian recipe as you can tell because we get a return from Mrs. Beeton in today's Almanac post. Basically this becomes a creamy scrambled egg on toast with anchovy paste.  This is the second recipe for today "Add finely chopped hard cooked eggs to a white sauce that has been seasoned with anchovy sauce and paprika. Pour over toast." If you are wondering what eggs has to do with the title of the recipe just know that most Scottish recipes that contain chicken in it will have the word "Cock" in there too. (Don't blush you prudes) I'm not trying to be silly. (Get your head out of the gutter) ...

Your County Agents Offer a Lot of Good Help "How much use have you made of the free services offered by your county agent? Today is the anniversary of the Cooperative Extension Service, established May 8, 1914." The Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service is an agency within the United States Department of Agriculture.  Our Almanac says that your County Agricultural Agent offers many free publications about lawn care, gardening, shrubs, trees, flowers, food and cooking, clothing, home furnishing, and house hold money management.

You can find your agent by following this site. Pick Your Own My county agent even has a Facebook Page! Most of these agencies do. Except you may not know them by their title above.
