Fall Dishes for Fall Meals {Menu Monday}
Our highs are supposed to be in the 70's this week, and I could. not. be. happier. I've been hotter this summer than I can ever remember! In celebration of the decreasing temperatures, we are having THREE soupy/fall/comfort dishes this week!

High Five For Friday and All The Fall Things!
1// Like every other person on the internet, I'm so glad it's fall! I've had fun slowly transitioning my decor for the season, and couldn't resist this sign from (where else) the One Spot at Target.

Announcing Vlogtober!
I've really enjoyed trying my hand at YouTube over the summer. I did a few grocery hauls in the late spring, but the Vlog Every Day in June Challenge was really my introduction to vlogging. Christy Jordan (who hosted the challenge) came up with such fun questions for each day that it wasn't hard to know… Continue reading Announcing Vlogtober!
He Is A Shield
He is a shield to those who walk in integrity. - Proverbs 2:7 The verse I'd read that morning entered my mind, fighting the thoughts of anger and betrayal. I had been accused of a mistake that cost my boss over a thousand dollars. No one had done any research before the accusation was made… Continue reading He Is A Shield
This Week’s Menu Plan + Mellowcreme Pumpkins
This week's menu came together so quickly! We haven't had ground turkey in a few weeks, and there were a couple dishes I knew I wanted that called for beef or turkey.

Cook Once, Eat Twice {Pasta Edition}
I mentioned in my Menu Planning On A Budget video that I like to use the "cook once, eat twice" method. Planning ahead by cooking parts (or in this case, all) of one meal while working on another one saves time and helps me to execute my weekly menu plan. Here's an example of how this works… Continue reading Cook Once, Eat Twice {Pasta Edition}
My Evening Routine
I believe that the things you do in the evening have a direct impact on the next day. Doing things the night before sets you up for a smooth and pleasant morning. There will always be surprises, disasters and spilled coffee, but those events won't be as disastrous if you've planned ahead for the day.… Continue reading My Evening Routine
Happy Labor Day! {Menu Monday}
Happy Labor Day! I hope you've had a great weekend with your family and friends. This holiday marks the last time we'll see grilling/cookout related items on sale for the year, but it also marks the beginning of fall grocery sales! I was able to take advantage of both of those, and you'll see what… Continue reading Happy Labor Day! {Menu Monday}
