Mar. 25th, 2013 08:57 amMom, Sis and I had lunch at my niece's house on Saturday, I finally got to see her new house! It's a semi-detached and in a newer style with the bedrooms down below ground level instead of upstairs. It's quite lovely and she's got it decorated very nicely. The only thing she noted is that it doesn't have a lot of storage space and I suppose that's the result of not having a basement since the bedrooms are there instead. I didn't ask what there was for attic space. Probably not much. They don't seem to build much attic space these days and people don't seem to use it like they did in the houses when i was a kid. In my grandmother's big old house there were actually beds and a little tiny enclosed bedroom in her attic with a proper staircase up into it. My dad and his twin had their room there and I think one of my cousins did as well when she and her parents lived there for awhile.
I borrowed Mom's car for the rest of the weekend as i have a follow up ultrasound scan this morning. Got a load of groceries on Saturday and went out again yesterday to get some more. It's easier going in twice since i can only carry so much into the house unless i go and find the grocery cart in the parking garage. Plus, there were one or two things the first shop didn't have so had to go get them anyway. I got stuck on the BettyCrocker.com website the other day and saved a bunch of recipes and asparagus was one of the things i wanted that i couldn't get on Saturday.
The recipe is turkey sausage and asparagus and orzo and it's all cooked in one pot. I do like asparagus and i never have it. This looked easy so i'll give it a go over the easter weekend maybe. There's another recipe wiht cauliflower and bacon, sort of a quiche except it uses that Bisquick mix and I just realized i forgot to get that. I must look up a recipe for homeade Bisquick. I'm sure there's one. It's just a biscuit mix after all.
So being off today (scheduled my EDO to coincide with the scan) and Friday is Good Friday so it's a short week at work. I will do my gym workouts on Tuesday and Thursday to get the two in this week.
