Busy day!

If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed Congratulations! You have been to to Ship Full O’ Pirates over 100 times! Just thought you’d like to know. Shopping for my new guitar.  Woohoo!  Thanks, Tex! Watering the garden.  Love that sage.  Yummmmmmmmmm! Solar ovens are cooking away.  My backyard smells [...]

Sourdough Copycat

She copied my no-poo and my solar oven.  Well, fair is fair, huh?  I’m copying her sourdough. Y’all read my friend KimC @ Life in a Shoe, right?  For those of you who don’t know, Kim and I are good friends IRL.  And part of the reason we are such good friends is that we [...]

Super Solar Suppers

I’m still having so much fun learning how to cook with my homemade solar ovens.  This is the most cooking fun I’ve had in a good while.  I still can’t hardly believe it’s possible to cook for free.   Yesterday I made Chile Rellenos in one oven and a Carrot, Squash, Chocolate Cake in the [...]

Always remember…

…and don’t ever forget… See this little gizmo? Can’t make bread unless it’s in it’s place.   And trust me when I tell ya, baked ingredients are WAY harder to get outta the pan than a loaf of bread.  I haven’t made that big a mess since… I have never made that big a mess.

Thrift Store Find

I went to my favorite thrift store last Friday.  I’ve been wanting a second bread machine.  Making one loaf of bread at a time has little value in this family of hungry Pirates. I went to the thrift store with this specific product in mind.  I even had a price in mind.  I really wanted [...]

Pirate Bread

MPM- The Squid’s Birthday

Yesterday was The Squid’s birthday. If you’re keeping track you’ll remember we just got through having The Princess’s birthday celebration last week. I’ve had enough birthday cake to last me until the first week of April, at which time we enter another season of birthdays. But for now we are on birthday hiatus. This week’s [...]

Makin’ Memories & Pretzels

Don’t tell me what you are gonna do tomorrow or this weekend unless you wanna read ’bout how we did it too, ‘cuz I’ll probably think it’s a good idea and do it too, and then blog about it.  And really?  There’s only a limited amount of time in the day and I’m already busy [...]

Our Daily Bread

I’ve been giving a lot of thought to my role in our family.  Am I being the best helper I can be?  I really get so tangled up in the feminist way of thinking that I was brought up on.  I have to remind myself to listen to the words of my husband.  I have [...]
