"I bet you already know what you're having for supper tonight." Someone said that to me one afternoon last week. I replied that I did have a meal planned - not necessarily because I was super organized but because I'm really hungry when I get home from work! 🙂

Surprisingly Easy Ways to Stay on Top of Things!
This time of year is always extra busy, and with the fluid nature of things right now it's possible that your schedule is constantly changing. I've come up with a few tricks that help me to stay as on top of things as possible. I can't possibly remember everything that I need to get done or recall random thoughts that pop into my head. Here are a few things I do that might be helpful for you, too!
Menu Monday and Organized Pinterest Boards
Do you remember life before Pinterest? It's been around almost as long as I've been married and I can't really imagine planning meals without it! After almost ten years of pinning recipes to my boards, I decided that it is time for me to get in there and reorganize things. I started with my Main… Continue reading Menu Monday and Organized Pinterest Boards

Menu Monday + Tips for Crockpot Recipes
I used my crock pot three times during this menu (which is from a couple weeks ago).
