This week I have two new recipes that are perfect for all the delicious summer produce we're enjoying right now. My sister sent me a recipe for a BBQ chicken pizza with peaches, and I'll admit being a little skeptical about the idea. Trust me, it is delicious! The recipe linked in the menu below… Continue reading Menu Monday + New Summer Recipes {7.25.22}

Menu Monday + How I’m Saving Money on Meat {7.11.22}
I love the convenience of grocery pickup, but at least once a month I pop into Ingles (grocery chain) at 8:00 AM and shop their marked down meat - those "meat manager specials" for things that are nearing their best by date. Recently I've purchased pork chops and a whole chicken for $.99/pound! I can… Continue reading Menu Monday + How I’m Saving Money on Meat {7.11.22}
Menu Monday + Summertime Is Here {6.20.22}
Summer is here with a vengeance! It's been in the 90's with crazy humidity the last week, and I'm doing my usual summer routine of trying to avoid it as much as possible. I went for balance with this menu plan, giving myself 3 meals that were super simple and 3 meals that were a… Continue reading Menu Monday + Summertime Is Here {6.20.22}
Menu Monday + Monster Cookies {6.6.22}
I pulled out my recipe binder last week and spent some time updating it. I had quite a few recipes I'd torn out of Southern Living and Taste of Home magazines that needed to be organized into the pages. In the process, I came across a hand-written recipe card for my mom's Monster Cookies -… Continue reading Menu Monday + Monster Cookies {6.6.22}
My Afternoon Routine: Small Steps Toward A Tidy Home
It's no secret that I'm a big fan of routines. What you might not know is that I'm naturally a very lazy person. Routines really help me stay on top of things in my home and keep me from wasting my time! During the week I usually have an hour or so between the time… Continue reading My Afternoon Routine: Small Steps Toward A Tidy Home
Menu Monday + Summer Fun In The Kitchen {5.16.22}
This is one of my favorite times of year to be in the kitchen! Paul is in his off season from refereeing sports, so he's home for supper - at the same time - pretty much every night! It's so nice to plan a menu without having to choose things that reheat well or that… Continue reading Menu Monday + Summer Fun In The Kitchen {5.16.22}
Menu Monday + How I Meal Plan {5.2.22}
I asked on Instagram if you all had any questions after reading my DITL post. I thought these two questions would be perfect to answer in today's Menu Monday post! How far ahead do you meal plan? Do you meal plan before the week so that you already know what is for supper? I plan… Continue reading Menu Monday + How I Meal Plan {5.2.22}
Menu Monday {4.18.22}
We're in a busy time of year where we don't have as many chances for sit-down suppers. I try to plan two "nice" meals with a meat and two sides for each week, and then keep it simple for the other days. I'm thankful for the busy season and the blessings that come with it!… Continue reading Menu Monday {4.18.22}
How To Be On Time
Several weeks ago I shared a blog post with 3 reasons you are always late, and gave tips on how to combat those things. Ironically, the week that post went live, I struggled to get out the door on time every morning. I was never late for anything, but I arrived frazzled and a little… Continue reading How To Be On Time
Menu Monday + Different Things {4.4.22}
This menu is a little different from the usual, for a couple reasons. Right now Paul is in a busy season of officiating college lacrosse, so we don't eat supper together every night. Because of that, I usually just make salads to go with the main dish and plan for a couple nights of leftovers… Continue reading Menu Monday + Different Things {4.4.22}
