I feel like I am the ants in the story of the Ants and the Grasshopper. I got up really early and took the chicken stock out of the fridge I had started yesterday. I did 6 quarts of stock with chicken and 3 quarts and 5 pints of just chicken stock. Today I also did 1 quart and 4 pints of green beans from the garden.
With school starting next week - I like to get a jumpstart on having things ready. Today I made a double batch of french bread - see recipe blog - and sliced it for sandwiches. I like to add some meat and cheese - put the sandwiches in sandwich bags and put in the freezer. This does look like a lot of sandwiches - but in all likely hood would be enough for 3 maybe 4 different lunches. There are 4 lunch takers again this year. Next year there will be 5 lunch takers.
This is the story of my day. It's been a long one. I am tired.

that's 20 sandwiches just for the lunch takers . (that's a good book title: "20 sandwiches just for the lunch takers".) geez and my goodness, that's a lot of sandwiches. but look at it this way: if you hypothetically pay yourself a living wage and calculate all the time and hard good costs associated with those 20 sandwiches, it's a huge savings to make them yourself. you have been so busy this week. i do hope you take some time off this weekend, relax and enjoy some family time. hugs...ellie
