Menu Monday {7.16.18}
We were out of town all weekend, and while it was nice to not have any household responsibilities I'm really glad to be back at home! Eating out is fun for a while, but I am ready to jump into this week's menu plan in my own kitchen. Here's what I have planned! Breakfast: Green… Continue reading Menu Monday {7.16.18}
Trying Something New {Menu Monday}
I'm trying something a little different with menu planning! For the summer I decided to try the themed approach to meal planning instead of just picking 5 or 6 meals that sound good and that correspond to my pantry inventory. Here's what I came up with: Monday: Italian Tuesday: Tacos (obviously!) Wednesday: Sandwiches - because… Continue reading Trying Something New {Menu Monday}
Old Favorites {Menu Monday}
When I made my menu this week, I scrolled to the bottom of my Main Dishes Pinterest board and found some really great dishes I haven't made in a long time! I'm excited to have dinner with a few old friends this week! What?! You don't refer to your recipes as old friends? 😉 Is there… Continue reading Old Favorites {Menu Monday}

Being an extremely hot natured person, I can deal with not having heat… Continue reading What To Eat When The AC Is Broken
Comfort Food to the Rescue! {Menu Monday}
The last ten days have been very unusual ones - Paul came down with a rough case of the flu that took him out of work for over a week! I can only think of two other times in the past 7 years that Paul has taken a sick day. He usually just "powers through"… Continue reading Comfort Food to the Rescue! {Menu Monday}
Game Changing Recipes of 2017
Since I try to "mix it up" in the kitchen with new recipes each month, it's always fun to look back over the year and determine the recipe standouts. I scrolled through this year's recipe blog posts and found the recipes that I've made multiple times. Most of these recipes have been made at least… Continue reading Game Changing Recipes of 2017
Magic Food {Menu Monday}
Last week my husband came home early from work and got right into bed. That only happens about once a year - usually he just pushes through whatever is bothering him and soldiers on. I knew it was serious when he came home early! My pantry wasn't fully stocked for the level of comfort… Continue reading Magic Food {Menu Monday}
Meal Planning For Family Vacation
Vacation is a wonderful thing. There's just something about getting away with the people you love, unplugging from daily life and reconnecting with new experiences, leisure time and fellowship. Vacation can also be expensive, stressful and a lot of work! As a spouse (and especially as a parent!) there's packing, planning and traveling that has… Continue reading Meal Planning For Family Vacation
