Friday Night Leftovers

• We went to my aunt and uncle's cottage on Monday, and Grace went on her first boat ride! She enjoyed it, but didn't like wearing her life jacket because her chubby cheeks got in the way. She was a little grumpy towards the end because she was so tired. 
• We officially have a baby who needs her blankie. What have we done?! I forgot to bring blankie to the cottage, and Grace refused to nap. She slept for about 45 minutes the whole day (hence why she was grumpy during the boat ride). She was content if she was with us, but would not settle in the playpen and would not sleep in my arms. 
• Blankie doesn't leave the crib (or playpen if we're not home) so I'm hoping we can just keep it as a comfort thing for sleeping, and not have her dragging a blanket around when she starts school.
• I don't have much to write this week! Find more leftovers here.  

Cooking 101

I'm a terrible cook. Well, maybe terrible is a bit harsh, but I am not a good cook. I don't enjoy cooking at all. Thankfully, I have a husband who loves to cook and is really good at it. He cooks supper and I do the dishes; this has been our routine for years. While I was pregnant, I said that I would start cooking supper since I would be home on maternity leave. Well... that hasn't exactly worked out. B often almost always cooks supper when he gets home from work. (I do help, I'm not just sitting around while he does all the work!) I need to change that. My plan is to start trying some different recipes, and find some dishes that can be my 'go-to' meals. I might even try a meal plan starting next week and see if that helps me.

Since it wasn't a very nice day today, I decided to make a big pot of spaghetti sauce. This is one meal I don't need a recipe for! Actually, I can make a pretty good spaghetti sauce.

Now that I've written it down, let's see if I can stick with this goal!
