Last night, I made chicken/orzo soup from Rotesserie Chicken that I had frozen. There’s quite a bit left, so either that’s lunch or dinner.

I have the Costco dumplings, so I’ll do that with TJ’s orange chicken.

I plan on making a homemade pizza sometime this week. I found my 00 flour in the cabinet so I want to use that.

New Year’s Eve, we’ll do sub sandwiches of some sort. Either from the market or homemade, and I’ll get the ingredients.

One night, we’ll do tacos with ground beef, and I’ll also add pintos. I have at least 2 jars of pressure-canned beans left.

I’m still contemplating getting the electric pressure canner, as it would be much easier to use. However, it’s pricey, so I need to consider it. I do enjoy canning, so there’s that.

I used the Zojirushi bread maker yesterday for a whole wheat bread. It came out good, although I didn’t have the non-fat bakers’ milk, so the crumb was off some. I need to go to the store this morning, so I’ll pick some up and try another loaf. I always just use the dough setting and bake in the oven.

Absolutely no luck with camping reservations. I tried again this morning and didn’t get nada, zilch, zero. It makes you wonder who is getting these reservations, and whether they are using high-speed computers or multiple computers. Sigh…. oh well, all I can do now is check for cancellations since we are into 4th of July week.

This is the beautiful clock my son got me for Christmas. Lake Tahoe.
