Prolific weekend, all around! I have been moving donation and eBay stuff between various surfaces in the dining area and finally decided to redo some shelves in the corner and evict this extra stuff. There is a large quarter-round table top on top of an L-shaped set of shelves (something my Dad designed and had built for his house. It wasn't built in, the buyers didn't want it, so I loaded it up with everything else when I emptied his house). I think it's about time to unload it, but for now I took the stuff off of the quarter-round and then took just that top away, and moved shelves in the L-shaped cabinets. I've put appliances in there. I'm getting rid of about 2/3 of my place mats; the ones I don't use because though they were cute they're a pain to have to run through the washer and they show food easily. I'll hold onto the vinyl ones.

Moved some boxes and an antique trunk in the sun room and got the rest of the garage sale stuff out of the truck. Cleaned up the new blender, ordered online a couple of extra rubber gaskets (this one looks like it is the original and the blender is at least 15 years old). I made batches of garlic pepper tea and garlic tea, both for organic gardening. Also made a batch of peanut butter for my son. A bag of roasted salted peanuts is a little too salty, but we'll live with it this time. The point was to see how it is made. We can use it to make peanut butter cookies and not add any extra salt.

Kat, I did notice when you mentioned that CD changer. I've liked the idea of them, but I have CD players all over the house, and I think I'd end up taking stuff out of it all of the time. I have two players that have 5-CD changers and I fill them with different types of albums then set it on "scramble." It's always an interesting mix and no commercials. :) This helps when I'm working on something I when I don't want distractions.
