Domestic Goddess Monday

I bought a shark vac and steam mop yesterday with returned goods to BB&B.  Also used my 20% off coupon which brought the total to 120 for it!  With coupons yesterday, I saved a total of $93 something!!!  BAM!  And I even got my 10% coupon back when I asked if I could use it again. hahaha.  So excited to try my shark out.  DH's dog is making me go completely nuts with my dirty tile right after I clean it.

Cue *omg, when I did I get so old that I'm excited about a shark vac*

  • Let us know how you like it! I've been considering one for the hardwoods and kitchen.

    I'm cooking pot roast today, it's DH's favorite. I actually started typing FI and had to catch myself haha Our furniture is supposed to be delivered today so I'm looking forward to that! We'll have real seating and I can start decorating!

    Yum! Picture please!  Oh, I love decorating!  I seriously could spend days at any home decorating store!

  • I have a steam vac (mine is a bissel) and I love that thing. I use it on the tiles in the kitchen and bathroom but I don't use it on the wood floors. I use method wood floor cleaner and put a rag on the end of my swiffer for those. I heard water/steam can be drying for wood floors. But its AMAZING on my tiles:)

    I threw together stuff to make crock pot shredded pork tacos this AM. I put a pork tenderloin, tomato pasta, half a packet of taco seasoning, chopped onion, cilantro, and some salsa in on low for 6 hours. I will shred it and serve in tortillas with shredded cabbage and guacamole. Yummmm. I made pot roast two weeks ago and it was a hit with DH! 

    Edit:Tomato Paste not tomato pasta!

  • Those tacos sound yummy! Tonight we're making alfredo for dinner & DH's sauce is amazing! I can't wait.
  • You do realize that I am probably one of the least domesticated wives here, so I can't really participate..but all these dishes sound yummy!

  • I got excited saturday because we ordered a vacuum online and it came in the mail! We bought a bissell pet hair eraser handheld vacuum for our new microfiber couch. We vacuum our hardwood floors with this eureka stick vac that is really good too. Food has been bad bad bad lately, I haven't gained weight though. We had takeout pizza last night for the first time in months!

    I got a shark vac for the couches for the wedding and I freaking LOVE it.  It's awesome! 

  • The tacos were delicious I highly recommend them, and it's yields a good amount of leftovers to freeze or send with DH to work for lunches. I am also whipping out my kitchenaid mixer to make some cookies this evening. I sub whole wheat flour and also only use half the butter and the other half I sub in no sugar added apple sauce. Instant snacks for DH to bring to work in his lunches!

  • I am with Risa - so undomesticated! And such a bad Nestie these days, I know! So there ya go. I did want to comment that we got a Shark (not the steam kind but the regular vacuum) and I love it.

     

    I was just telling DH (I always want to say FI too) that I need to start back up with a meal plan. I always expect him to cook because he is a million times better, but I also understand that if he isn't in the mood, it's the very last thing he wants to do after working all day [as a cook]. I know it's not fair. :(
