A quick 5 min. (don't want to burn Easter supper) lol

Well just after I posted this morning I called Walmart and they were open early so by 8am I had my Easter treat shopping done..bunnies/movies etc. oh yes, and a plant for ME...so off to Home Depot and picked up necessary wood, lordy they had nicer plants so picked up a plant for ME...then went to IGA and did my groceries..of course by now I'm rushing in order to get home before the masses and it's only 8:45am..I ask the floor assistant where are the frozen turkeys with stuffing..that way you just put in the oven and ta/ta it's done..I make some of my own, mix with gravy and just as good as 'grandma' used to make..so he shows me where, tells me they are in the green tag bin..ok I'm there..pick up everything to do pies, then on the way out I see a sign $4.99 and beautiful potted plants so after I pay my groceries and don't want to get back into lineup I ask the cigarette counter if she's able to take cash for the plant..yep so I decide to purchase another plant...for ME..lol..then off to the door place, lordy he was helpful, I bought a triple insert of stained glass and new front door, so I have to bring specific measurement next week and he'll have it inserted to fit..so, I go to Norm's flowers (just opened) now didn't they have a beautiful yellow/orange container filled with plants, nice table setting so of course it came home with me, another for ME plant..

So I'm proud as can be, got everything done and it's only 10:30am..full day ahead..put all my groceries away, get the turkey, take it out of it's wrapper and I look again, not a pre-stuffed turkey, it's frozen so 'no good' for supper, so back in the car to town to purchase my 2nd. Easter turkey..
that's what you get for rushing too quickly..so now I've cooked my rolls, make my pies, carrots and turnip slowly cooking..yet a ham to cook but much too early..made all my pre-meal treats and I'm ready, ONLY if I'm a good girl and don't get into crafts and forget somethings a cooking..

Sounds like you are all busy, hope none of you are directly involved in the weather storms/flooding etc. do hope you are all safe..

Will be back to gab..

Liz, just incase DH does decide to get at it, I'd better post the next few steps..
