Being my day off, I did a significant amount of laundry and cleaning. But, Tif was also home, so we did some shopping and at Joann's they had Simplicity patterns on sale for $1! One. Dollar. It was like Christmas came early. Because most of the patterns we like in the Simplicity book are $16-$20. We found about 7-10 that we liked and whittled that down to our 5 favorite. I bought them, and had the most fun at a cash register ever. The discounts don't show on the customer screen until the cashier has finalized the transaction. So the total was $80+. She hit the finalize button, and it dropped down to just over $5 (with tax). Best. Thing. Ever.
We got home and everyone took an item for dinner: Rice, Chicken or Sauce. Mom took the rice, Tif the chicken, and I took the sauce. We had it together in just about 20 minutes. I think it's called "Skinny Orange Chicken." We like this recipe too. For some reason we really like the Chinese (ish) recipes: Beef & Broccoli, Orange Chicken, General Tso's, etc. It was very good.
Then I went to Institute. We tackled the Isaiah Barrier in 2 Nephi tonight. Amazingly, it wasn't as hard as it has been in the past. But I did take the Isaiah class with Bishop Stones, so that probably helped, too. When I was leaving Institute, I saw this beautiful moon rising. Sadly, no pictures, but just know that it was beautiful.
