life update

 Well another update I can't remember when the last one was it looks like from my research it was march when. Bubby turn 2 but that was focus on him. this is a genral update.

home cooking:

this is going good and been trying more and more thing made my own bread a few times as well and my own tortillas and homemade pizza well simi homemade haven't gotten brave to make my own pizza sauce yet. I'll get braver but i also want to be able to can the sauces i make to make them last as long as posable but with having pizza almost every Friday that might now go bad as fast 

Gardening 

Well gotten the tomatoes, onion, and peppers planted in the raised beds I also trying to get camomile to grow in my kitchen window and have gotten parsley and basil plant in pots got swiss chard going in a starter kick and got some carrots in the beds we will see what grows this year and me and my husband has said we will see what we want to plant next year in November so we can have more of a plan and see if we want to grow our garden 

house work

gaming 

i've been playing a few games here and there when i got time and i just want to fully unwind minecraft and binding of isaac have been put on rotation and of been playing a lot of the sims 4  

motherhood 

ah motherhood it been up and down some days I lost my patience and other days seems to be a breeze the little boy i'm raising is fearless and will test boundaries like no other. With that said i wpuld change it for any thing at all. I love seeing him play and what he gets in to though it can be messy and he loud and won't listen sometimes he has a big heart he has to know where everyone is and will check on people even though it not his job. He still needs to learn to play with kids his own age but don't have a lot of opportunities for that right now. he loves outside as well which can be hard to get him inside so neither one of us burns and he can have a something to drink or when he getting tired that boy will go and go until he falls out. 

health 

this has been a bit up in the air back in February the whole family got the flu but as i was getting better from the flu i got some kind of allergy reaction to something in the house and had a dizzy spell in the middle of the night when i got up to go to the bathroom. then in march i had a sinus infection. then in april while cleaning up our back yard i got in to something that made me had another allergy reaction. my mental health has been pretty good a few day with all the illness it slipped but for the most part it been good. 

with all that said thanks for reading this and have a wonderful day or night where every you are and remember read what you like 

shopping my own cook books

 hey readers, last year i try to cook more at home and buy less premade stuff and take out one money two was not so to keep it healthier but to know what is actually in my food. Since my son eating the food as well. Last year i was looking online but with AI recipes every where i'm going old school and using cook books we have a bunch we got over the years some were my grandmothers. I'm going though them and seeing what recipes i want to try so far we been working on one for the slow cooker and have done a few recipes so far everything we made me liked. doing this has giving me a new love for cooking but i will say i caught. a mistake in one of the recipes and it just makes me laugh. With that said i'll be trying to go though more and more of my cook books and see which one are worth keeping and what worth getting rid of. I'll update you on how this process goes and if we find any new faves 

simi home cooking

 hey readers 

last year i learn so many things are easy to whip up home made but i'm still simi homemade not everything going to be made from scratch right now i'm taking one thing at a time and i don't think everything will be home made i don't think i'll be milling my own flour and making my own cheese but sauces and salsas and soups i'll be trying to make more from scratch or simi homemade this year we will be trying to grow a garden again but that for another post this is about cooking

so what do i me by simi home cooking i mean less take out and more cooking at home meals will have jar sauce sometimes, but not every meal has to be home cooked either it buying the pasta insteead of making it myself, but instead of buying premade bread making it myself that kind of thing i got tons of cook books that until now rarely got used 

with that said i'm not going to be looking up recipes online as much a lot of them are ai these days, but i would love for you guys to leave your faves down below and if one of my cooking youtubers come up with something i want to try i'll use their website

over all what i'm saying is i'm not making every meal fulling from scratch between chasing my toddler and cleaning house and still trying to read a few pages a day i got a lot to do and some mornings i'm just not up for getting everything prep
