Tips and Tricks for Todays HomeMaker

Cooking for my Mom today,  I love her very much, and I hope she enjoys today.

Great meal planned…….  ham and rolls, greenbeans,

roast, butternut squash, fresh corn on the cob, cheesecake, chocolate, and one with blackberries… tea, coffee..yum  yum

oh yeah I forgot, I’m on a diet, and will be very limited  on what I can eat, but I made everything as low fat as I could..so a little want hurt I guess.

Found some recipes using the new Almond Milk from  Silk…This stuff is awesome!!  I normally use soymilk..but this almond milk is 100 times better.. The cheesecakes are made from it….u cannot tell the difference..once slice of the cheesecake made from the almond milk is 190 calories  4 grms of fat…not to bad…

Can’t blow the diet to bad  just lost 2 pounds this week, and it was not easy…had to cut my calorie count to 1450 all week to loose it..man as you get older  it gets a lot harder..     have a great evening everyone..

I hope all you mothers out there have a grand day, and you are richly blessed..

Mothers Day has never been a big event my house, my son on some occasions remebers to call and say Happy Mothers Day but not often..

Now I am not saying that to invoke pity, or to make him sound like a horrible son…no  you must read on…He would tell you and me also I do not need one day of the year set aside to let you know what a great mom you are… He  often tells me ,Mom your the greatest…Mom I love you at least 4 or 5 times when he calls home..and I know he is saying it from his heart..

Whenever he has a questions about life, his job, his relationships with friends,I am the one he calls.  This makes me feel wonderful as a mother, because I know that he values what I have to say , and he thinks that I am  capable of helping guide him thru the  hurtles we all face. There is no greater gift or compliment than to have your childrens  trust and faith that you have wisdom to help them make the correct decisions in life.

I look at him and think,  God has truly blessed me, he kind, and smart, funny, and very protective of his mother..all the things you dream of  when you first, hear the words.. from the doctor   You are going to have a baby…

So even though a big fuss will not be made today…I don’t care…because  I  know I am blessed to have him, and many times every day,  he lets me know     I am a great mom in his eyes…

I have had an  account for awhile to blog, I was so excited to share it on my facebook page..but when I sat down to write, I came up blank..

I thought there are so many great blogs out there, whatever shall I write on?  So I thought and I thought, yesterday while talking to my sister

I realized that I should just write on  what is on my mind that day.. I am not really educated in one thing, but I do know a lot of tips and tricks on dieting, cleaning, couponing, photography, and raising kids… So  that is what I am going to do…whatever is on my mind that day, is what I shall write about…I hope you enjoy..and  come back often to let me know what u think.
