What should we do today?

I have cleaned half of my house. Olivia's room & my kitchen/dining room/living room (it's one long awkward space) are still a trainwreck. I could A) clean them or B) not. Or maybe C) clean them while watching the rest of the 2nd season of Lost. I'm leaning towards B. I think instead I'm going to make some Strawberry Jam...


I am going to start posting 4 x 6 recipe cards on the blog with some of the staples that will get you by as a mom/wife/person who likes to eat. Some of them are going to be used on a weekly basis, and some are going to be used only once in a great while, but all are going to be good. This strawberry jam is the Barefoot Contessa's recipe, I'm just putting it in a cute, handy form that you can print out and make your own recipe book with. Good idea, hunh? Go get a cute recipe book and stick the recipe's in there and you might actually feel like cooking something special, like strawberry jam. Oh, and strawberries are on super sale at Sprouts. Go and make some fantastic jam, and tomorrow we can make some bread to go with it.

****EDIT: Whoa guys, sorry about the confusion. It is definitely 1 and 1/2 pints of strawberries NOT 112 pints. Holy crap that would have been some expensive jam
