Hoping for a better day today!!

Although I got a TON of things done yesterday... It really wasnt a good day!!

I did manage to get all of my carrots cut, blanched and frozen!  Which was A LOT of work!!  At that point a headache was setting in.
When I went to move on to the beets, I realized I didnt have all of my ingredients... SOOO... off to the grocery store I went!  And, while I was heading all the way to town... I decided to do my full monthly trip (yes, I shop for an entire MONTH when I go to the grocery store! I plan a months worth of meals at a time. I makes life easier for me.)  I got all the way to Josh's place and realized that since I wasnt driving my truck... I didnt have my store club card.  I ended up visiting with Josh for awhile, in hopes to waste some time so Stacy could meet up with me at the store so I could swipe his card! 
By this time my head was POUNDING!

With shopping DONE, we head home... had to put away a boat load of groceries.  Oh joy.  While making room on the counters... I slammed my hand into the blade of my brand new food processor!!!  Good thing my hubby was around and we always have a supply of super glue!  UGH!

Once groceries were put away... it was back to my beets.  AND, slicing my green tomatoes.  To get the tomatoes ready for pickling, they have to sit in pickling salt over night.  WELL... while packing them in salt...the salt back flipped open weird and I ended up with both eyes full of salt!!  BURN does not even begin to describe it!!  And boy did I have blurry vision for a bit.

I was so done after that.  But, I really wasnt, unfortunately!  I didnt get done with my beets until about 9:30 last night!!

Ok... that was my little "complaint" session.

ON A POSITIVE, PRODUCTIVE NOTE---  I am almost sure I have picked the name for my grooming shop!!  And I am thinking about taking an 'unconventional' twist with picking out my equipment... and I really hope it works out for me!!  Something to really think about...before I start putting money out.  Since I am really hoping to fund this "adventure" with the sales of this summer's Love Duck Farm products! 
SOOOOO..... CHECK OUT--  http://www.loveduckfarm.com/  and let me know what you would like to try!!
And I will continue making my goodies... and planning my shop!!! 

I am truly blessed to have an amazing husband and children!!  I am getting soooooo much support from them all!!  I am such a lucky lady.

Ok... on with my day.  MUST get my green tomatoes processed... and clean my kitchen!!
