Bread Making!

As the title of this post says: Bread Making!
Yes, I have learned to make bread.. Even though I have yet to perfect it and yet make it my own I had such a great time learning how to make it. Surprisingly enough B's dad taught me! It is a recipe via B's grandmother so I felt so grateful & privileged to learn the recipe . Here are some pictures of the progress also B's Dad make Cookies! Delicious... Dangerously Delicious Cookies!  :)

Progress

In September, I posted a small list of things I wanted to accomplish within the month. The two item list contained the following:
  1. Cook a new recipe 
  2. Cleaning Skills  
I can say that I have successfully completed the two! Even tough my goals for that month are finished,I will continue to perfect my cooking & cleaning skills.
I did cook a New Recipe! While looking through Pinterest and trying to get inspiration, I decided Why not just "Wing-It"? I know basic knowledge of cooking (Kinda) so, I just chose the base and kept going. It ended up being some sort of Macaroni n Cheese with chicken sorta kinda thing???  Anywho, It was delicious and worked out lovely.
Next... Cleaning Skills.. Something that I need more improvement on. I can clean, but I would like to clean much more effectively and often. I check this off my list, because I worked with a family friend for his catering business. I worked with him set up and clean up events. I did such things as: Washing dishes, counter tops and various other tasks. So even though It was not "home" cleaning, I did receive a ton of knowledge and experience.

   I am aware I have many more things to learn on my way to being a good homemaker. I acknowledge that it will not be a quick and simple process, but 100% worth it :)

Here's my October Goal List:


Till Next Time!

Hello Autumn Goodbye Summer


I'm over the rim with excitement for the new season that has begun. With the changing of a new season overall change is bound to happen. I fully embrace the change that is coming and the autumn leaves that I love so much. Excitement is all I'm feeling right now.. I feel that Love is in the air and fun times are ahead. Summer was indeed fun, but autumn is the time where I figure out what I need. I am tempted to put "Want" instead of  "Need",but it's what I need that is most important. Someone could want a new pair of jeans or a new house,but is it what you need? My needs and wants are completely different. In my case I actually NEED a pair of new jeans. Lets just say that my old pair of skinny's are beyond saving.. I WANT a new car, but the one I have runs perfectly fine at the moment. I can save up to get a better one, but I don't NEED it at the moment. This Season I will try to distinguish my wants and needs, it will help prioritize my life and allow me to learn myself. 
I'm so excited to see what this Autumn Brings!


 Summer definitely will be missed but Autumn...surprise me.
