3 Simple Tasks and an Ice Cold Tea

We are almost at Easter and I am zipping around the house putting things away and adding a bit of spring here and there as  I go.  To motivate me along the way I am listening to music and drinking tall glasses of iced tea.

The three biggest task of the day are cooking, cleaning and PUPA actions.

1. I am cooking up a big batch of crispy chicken thighs in the oven for dinner and a few lunches for the next few days.

2. I am cleaning and organizing each room for at least 20 minutes and adding a few sprigs of spring flowers and some Easter pizzaz in the form of candies,  glass jars filled with grass and pretty eggs and a couple of bunnies I picked up at the local Target. I keep Easter simple so that I can spend more time with my boys.

3. The biggest part of making my home shine for Easter is PUPA action which is basically picking up stuff and putting it away.  During Spring break clutter can really explode if you have children underfoot spreading the clutter cheer around.

What are you plans today?
