Handmade doings around the house

We’ve been eating out a lot lately.  A LOT.  So I’m trying to be better about making things around the house.  Yesterday I decided to make taco soup using our canned ground beef and canned beef stock I had made.  This was my first experience with canned ground beef.  Some folks don’t like canned ground beef because the texture isn’t as firm as freshly cooked ground and I would have to say that they are right about the texture; it’s definitely softer.  However, I didn’t mind it at all in the soup.  Now, I might not like it for stroganoff or something like that, but it worked great in this iteration.

When the beef came out, it had this perfect fat cap layer that I was able to just scoop out of the pan and throw away.  I wish I thought to snap a picture of the finished soup because I think it all turned out quite pretty.  I put in black beans, canned corn, canned tomatoes, and some taco seasoning.  When I dished it up, I garnished it with shredded cheese and sour cream and ate it with tortilla chips.  Totally great soup.  And, because I used our beef stock, we get the added benefit of the natural gelatin that is so good for joints and overall wellness.  Go us!

I’ve been eating our chicken eggs with abandon, frying up a couple for dinner when I don’t feel like actually making a main meal.  Of course, since we are trying to be better about eating out, that whole “meal planning” thing would probably come in quite handy.  Still need to look into that.

We took Benny for a walk the other night.  It was a very stilted affair, he definitely needs work.  It makes sense, because we’ve only tried to walk him maybe twice now in his 10 months of life, so nothing will be perfect.  Definitely need to work on that.  Still kicking around the idea of only having one dog.  Velvet may have a coworker for the other one, we’ll see how that pans out.  I think Benny might miss Luca at first but would *probably* grow to be ok with being the only dog in the house.  Anyone have experience with that, removing a dog from the household?  How did your remaining dog react?  Our Jojo kitty would probably be very happy about it.  She’d be ecstatic if we got rid of both dogs.

I’m thinking on my days off from work I should be more hands-on with Ezra.  Like, maybe schedule a definite time for things.  10-11am, coloring.  11am-12pm, reading.  Something along those lines.  Of course, I really like my non-scheduled days off because of their flexibility.

Potty training with Ezra is coming along.  He’s really very good when he doesn’t have on any bottoms, and he absolutely hates to poo in a diaper anymore and always tells us when he needs to do that business, but he WILL NOT tell us when he has to pee.  Just goes in the diaper and calls it a day.  Maybe if we put him in underwear and he gets wet a couple times it will start to bother him enough to make the effort.  Of course, then I’ll have to clean up pee puddles around the house…. Ideas are welcome!
