I had a huge long list of things to do today. Tomorrow morning we leave to go down to Cedar Rapids for our son’s wedding festivities. I hoped to get the house in order (I hate coming home to a messy house), get some food together, pack and address all the things I usually wait the last minute for.
Then I got a phone call from Hubby….we are having several hours of no electricity again. This is the fourth or fifth time in the last two weeks.
They are putting in new electric poles and upgrading. I know I should be thankful. In fact we have a generator…I just don’t like to use many appliances or computers because of the possible power surges. Well…what can we do without much power???
Make the snack mix!!
This is the best recipe for a large reception. It’s a snack mix made with all sorts of goodies. You can see some of the things we added. We made a triple batch for the wedding. I posted the recipe before. You can find it here.
As we were making it I realized that Hubby didn’t have dress socks…well now we’re off to town.
So much for tackling those last minute things that were on the list. Maybe tonight I’ll get to them after Kalissa goes to work and Hubby goes to a meeting. There is something to be said about few interruptions.
I know you make this in garbage bags….I know that garbage bags use to say not to use for food as they contain pesticides….Sorry. You might want to check your bags.
I understand the chaos! My son is getting married Saturday also. I thought I had so much done that today would be quiet before company tomorrow, HA! I did remember the important items, waterproof mascara and tissues. Now I’m headed to see if hubby has dress socks, thanks for the reminder :-) Enjoy the special day!
