Staying home found me doing a little of this and a little of that..sort of the norm for me lately. One accomplishment can be seen in tonight's photo. I completed the little pillow with the kites on it. I had finished stitching it a week or more ago. Last week during the Zoom stitching meeting, I stuffed it. Then today I sewed the little opening on the bottom closed. So another Spring "small" to display in with my Spring decorations. Speaking about the Zoom stitching meeting, I spent some time fulfilling a request from the moderator of the Zoom meeting. She asked me to send her some photographs of my Loara Standish sampler. I took a few new photos and also sent her some that I had taken in the past. I read some more on one of the books that I got from the public library on Thursday. I also spent some more time finalizing the Sunday School lesson for tomorrow. I did spend some time in the kitchen. I decided to bake the ham that I bought yesterday. That, of course, took care of itself, once I got it into the oven. That is the first time that I have cooked a ham using my thermometer probe that connects to the oven, which made it even easier to know when it was time to take it out of the oven. I did sample a little of it...I had to after smelling it cook for several hours! I just enjoyed the enchiladas that I made yesterday that I was too tired to try last night. They are very good...once again. I use a recipe that I got from my sister years ago. But I have replaced the canned enchilada sauce and canned gravy called for with homemade which has changed the taste some. And, my latest addition is a layer of sour cream and I slice my colby-jack cheese instead of grating it. Also, some years back both my sister and I pretty much stopped rolling our enchiladas as the tortillas tended to break apart when rolling them. I now do a layered dish...the way you make lasagna. I like them just as well and they are so much easier and a little less messy when making them this way. Anyway, they passed my taste test this time and found my supper very tasty. I'm pretty much done in for the day. I did sit down and stitch on the Christmas ornament that I am currently stitching. I think I will either continue stitching or might read some more...or even better...do both! To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
