the list is shrinking...

i wouldn't be the blogging geek that i am if i didn't post an update from this morning's to-do list. so here you go, with pictures....

so far i have:



*made the quinoa salad



*baked the muffins



*cooked the chicken for the sandwiches



*washed the dishes



*packed



*charged the ipod & camera batteries



*bathed

and


*cut the batting for the picnic quilt

and now it is time to eat something, baste the 2 pieces of batting together, figure out how to get them sandwiched, make the sandwiches for tomorrow and watch my netflix...

today's to-do

we're heading out to visit with family up the coast this weekend and there is a picnic planned for tomorrow. since i am a lover of picnics and picnic pretty and we never really muster up the picnic mojo, i am going all out! mr. a-go-go will be home around six and then we head out for a multi-houred drive, so the to-do list is a bit hectic today. today i will attempt and hopefully finish(as in do, not dream, plan or scheme):

*the picnic quilt
*bake a dozen chocolate chip muffins
*watch my netflix
*the quinoa salad
*the savory yummy delicious sandwich
*pack
*bathe
*mint lemonade
*go to the library
*sweep floors


all mostly do-able. its the blanket/quilt that is going to trip me up. i'll start roasting the beets now and sauteing those greens and onions. oh and the chicken needs to be cooked. okay, there seems to be a bunch of hidden steps in that do-able list. gotta go! i leave you with an early morning shot of the official august bed which is nowhere as nifty as last year's. happy weekend!
