I had a huge long list of things to do today. Â Tomorrow morning we leave to go down to Cedar Rapids for our son’s wedding festivities. Â 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. Â This is the fourth or fifth time in the last two weeks.
They are putting in new electric poles and upgrading. Â I know I should be thankful. Â In fact we have a generator…I just don’t like to use many appliances or computers because of the possible power surges. Â Well…what can we do without much power???
Make the snack mix!!
This is the best recipe for a large reception. Â It’s a snack mix made with all sorts of goodies. Â You can see some of the things we added. Â We made a triple batch for the wedding. Â I posted the recipe before. Â 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. Â Maybe tonight I’ll get to them after Kalissa goes to work and Hubby goes to a meeting. Â 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!
