I'm on my 5th load of laundry. How did that happen? We usually only average one a day.
Buttermilk brownies are cooling and being allowed to age before being tested. I'm trying a new recipe using Smart Balance instead of butter or oil. Plus I had buttermilk I had to use up.
Experimenting with buttermilk ice cubes- I'm hoping I can keep the cubes in a freezer bag and thaw as needed for recipes. We just don't go through that much buttermilk all at once, and the powdered instant buttermilk isn't as good.
DS14- soon to be DS15 - asked me to cut his hair. I offered to take him for a real, professional cut, but he said it didn't matter because soon it will be hat weather. I love that frugal boy!
Yumi is being really naughty. I can't figure out what's got her so ticked off. You should see DS11's feet!
I can't believe we're short about 4 feet of underlay in the hallway. I had really wanted to return that last $50 roll! Its seems to be a cruel joke I have to cut only 4 feet off of the 100 foot roll and be left with 96 feet. This confirms, we'll have to lay down laminate in the bedrooms one day to use it up.
Speaking of the flooring project, the living room is so close to being done. To our horror, we discovered our walls are not straight and now instead of that last row of planks fitting nicely, we are left with a small inch or so gap, too big for the quarter round to hide. Its only along half of the wall. We're thinking of cutting a sliver of laminate and gluing it in.
I've been taking magnesium pills. I didn't think I was low in magnesium, but I thought I'd try them and see what kind of results I ended up with. I had read magnesium helps with hypertension, nerve function and metabolism. Well, after a week, my RLS is gone and the scale is finally starting to move down! I'll have to re-test my blood pressure soon.
There goes the dryer buzzing at me. One quick fold and then I'm off to work. See ya later, gators!

Never heard of buttermilk brownies. Sounds interesting.
That's a shame about the flooring. I love returning unused stuff from house projects. Gluing a sliver to fill in the gap sounds like what I would do.
Glad the magnesium seems to be helping
We usually have 1 load of laundry a day too. Then my son will pick up his room + all the clothes on the floor that he never put away get shoved in the hamper + I have 3 or 4 loads. Have a great day!
Maybe your laundry piled up from your trip this weekend? I have been doing extra washing today, but it's because of bed linens. :o)
Good idea for the buttermilk cubes. I think they should work out fine!:o)
Magnesium pills? I may have to try those. :o)
Sorry about the floor and having to cut off a piece of the flooring, but the good news is if you need to replace a piece later, you will have the same pattern!:o)
Oh magnesium is awesome!! It is one of my top supplements....that and Vit D!! SO many people are deficient in both!
Laundry always seems to sneak up on us. I always find myself wondering where all of it comes from lol. I think I'm going to try magnesium pills, sounds like there are great benefits from taking them. Sorry to hear about your flooring but be creative and it will work itself out, good luck!
Magnesium also helps your body absorb calcium, and that's why I take a supplement, along with my calcium & Vit. D. I do four loads of laundry every Sunday, unless we have had company, making extra towels and sheets. It never ends though! Have a good night!
Laundry, oh the laundry.....some days seems fine, then all of a sudden I am flooded with laundry.
sorry about the flooring. I am sure you will figure out what to do.
would love the recipe for the buttermilk brownies. I freeze yogurt culture in ice cube trays, I am sure the buttermilk can be done the same way. I totally agree with you that powder buttermilk just does not compare. :(
magnesium....never thought about it. I need to learn more about the minerals and vitamins that we need and how to get what we need naturally. I really do not like take pills but know that there are times that we need to. I also would love to learn more about natural remedies by use of herbs etc....like willow bark tea, etc.....
I have a great book called The Magnesium Miracle that explains SO much!! :)
