A Day with the Princess

What a wonderful day for it to have been so gloomy outside! Emma and I spent most of the day "nesting" as I call it. Laundry, cleaning, emails, playing together, etc. She is so much fun to be around! (Especially now that her cold is gone...much thanks to the things listed a few posts ago)

Managed to squeeze in time to make an early supper before heading to Teris Kidz sale in Mooresville. Many people know this recipe as "Mawmaw Dot vegetable soup" and oh was it yummy. Ive listed the recipe for anyone who wants to make some. Quantities arent listed because she said its up to you to put however much you want in it! I take her advice :)

Veggie/Beef Soup:
-sliced carrots
-peeled, diced potatoes
-browned and drained beef
-butter
-tomatoes, juice, and paste
-water
-salt, pepper, all spice
-black eyed peas, cooked old style (the secret ingredient!!)

Emma and I scooted out to the Teris Kidz sale in Mooresville.  For fellow mamas who love deals, this event (2x a year) is the BOMB! Yes that phrase is so outdated, but seriously...I find great deals every year there! We rarely buy new...I always buy nice used things and it pays off! Literally. ;)
