Tuesdays have turned out to be my favorite day of the week. The shock of Monday mornings has passed by then, usually we have more food in the house again (after eating it all up over the weekend), and the work mentality hasn't hit yet. And I'm a homemaker---what's up with that?
And even though it'll be another outrageously hot day (98F. with heat index of 101F.), I hear that the humidity isn't supposed to be as wretched as it might be (or as I often say, 'might could be'), I'm baking a cake this morning. Vanilla with chocolate frosting. Homemade cake except for a can of fudge frosting that called my name at the store yesterday. I tend to be a scratch cook, but with one inexpensive product sure to make my life easier, canned frosting it is---at least for today. If I can keep the kids mitts out of it before the cake is baked. Those cans of frosting tend to need to be tasted repeatedly before they're actually used.
And later on will do the dusting and vacuuming that's been avoided for days and days. And pugs are year-long shedders. You get the picture. And I don't have to get out except to go to the drugstore for something later on. I love low-impact days---ones that don't force me out of the house overmuch. This is that day. :)
