I've been busy once again with my Christmas Project: Sewing & Baking. I was thinking about this earlier since November however could'nt start to begin with earlier because I have other plans to get busy about.
Baking project: The making of empanada is really a very laborious job and my husband knew about it as he is the witness to what I was doing, rolling the pin to flatten the dough. Keeping measurements of the circle or round wrappers where big spoonful of stuffing will be wrapped one by one. Pre-baked dozens of empanada and cool them down so that I can store in the freezer. Did you know that the cooking of "stuffing" for the empanada takes time and energy too.
Next Baking Project would be next week when I have more time. Cookies & Muffins. I like to bake pies too. That could wait in the next days to come.
The Sewing Project: I had sewn a pair of lace blouse, two checkered tote bags and the rest of the fabric or textile will be allocated for the next project.What am I doing with those totes? For Christmas gifts of course.
My God! My back hurts already! Have to stop for now and continue my project next day off.
So much so those 2 days off not enough. Now you wonder why the Prime Minister of Finland was in favor of 4 DAYS WORK for 6 HOURS/DAY and 3 DAYS OFF. Know why?
Hectic schedule for a Mother who works outside the home and come back home to do the cooking and cleaning of the kitchen, also include the marketing. If they have young baby or children additional work for them. The two days off : Saturday & Sunday are for housework most of the time and truly no time for relaxation. With one spare extra day off that can give every parent, every Mother or Father to relax and rest from stressful over pressured job. This is just my opinion. Your opinion is yours and I respect every opinion others can contribute. For those who want extra work... then that will be considered overtime or some people thrive on having a part time job in another company so that they wont feel the boredom and routine work in just one company.
