Weekly Highlights

Hello world! Today I organized 1.5 cabinets with all of the rest to go. I did not realize that there were so many cabinets to go through. I would show you the before and after, but no one really wants to see that... do they? 

I think I am going to start working toward my business analyst certification this year. It will help me if anything happens to the sweet gig I have now. 

What are you doing today?

Let it SNOW!

 It has snowed.... again. Why? Why? Well.. apparently it is January and it snows in January. The dog and I both agreed that we would wait to go on a long walk until after the snow was mostly gone.

Did I tell you I really don't like snow?

Canning Turkey

 The day after Christmas, I decided to try something new. I canned 8 pints of turkey (our leftover turkey) to be used at a later time. 

I did some research before purchasing a bird of 19 pounds. There were quite a few what were you thinking moments and questions from my family. As I explained my plan (I was basically flying by the seat of my pants) there were some nods of agreement. I did some research, watched some videos, and did some reviewing.

 I am pretty experienced in pressure canning (I can chicken and beef broth all of the time.) 

Update: I also canned 5 pints of turkey broth. I don't want to say that this was the best broth I have ever canned, but it came dangerously close to being the best broth. Makes me want to make some turkey soup using the canned turkey.

My Big List of Things I am going to do 2022

 

2022 the year of the comeback for the Year of Health

 I have decided (perhaps foolishly) to revive this blog. My goal is to post at least once a week. If nothing else, I am hopeful to post once per month. If so, that will be more times that I have ever published to this website. My goal is to publish at least a weekly list of goals I hope to accomplish in 2022 and my updates to this list each week.
