Sunday:
I took some frozen raspberries and cooked them in a simple syrup, then strained the seeds. I used the sauce as a topping on cheesecake (from the freezer) and also in the plain yogurt for the kids.

Made granola bars. A little too sweet. DH has been eating them. Made buttery bisquits with bread machine (www.moneysavingmom.com) ended up with 3 pie plates of dough balls. Placed 2 in second fridge for later use.

Tues:
Made 4 dozen molasses cookies and about 3.5 cups of granola (www.hillbillyhousewife.com) Plan to make fruit/yogurt parfaits for breakfast.

Ceramic Tile
I usually wash the floors with vinegar and water for past 7 years. I was looking at the tile and the grout and it didn't look clean enough. I used borax and a scrubber and I had to change the water 6 times. Wow!
