Happy October, everyone! We kicked off the month with big slices of pumpkin pie topped with generous amounts of cool whip. My husband is a big fan of pumpkin pie, and since it has relatively short "season," I decided we should start eating it as soon as possible. 🙂 (I used the Perfect Pumpkin Pie recipe with Frannie's… Continue reading Pumpkin Pie Season {Menu Monday}

Menu Monday {and changing my grocery store relationship status to “it’s complicated”}
I finally got some good South Carolina peaches! My favorite place to get them is halfway between here and Asheville, NC. I finally headed that way on Saturday and made a point to stop and pick up a load of peaches on the way home. For some reason I've had bad luck with produce this… Continue reading Menu Monday {and changing my grocery store relationship status to “it’s complicated”}
This Week’s Menu {and what I’m thankful for}
Happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend and were able to stay cool wherever you were. On Friday afternoon I came home to a super hot house with a completely dead HVAC unit. I might have cried.

Dark Chocolate Iced Coffee {Cold Brew}
My secret to surviving summer in the South is to keep everything as cold as possible. I finish my showers with a blast of cold water, carry ice water with me when I run errands, set the thermostat at 68 and only turn on the oven when absolutely necessary. I'm serious about staying cool in… Continue reading Dark Chocolate Iced Coffee {Cold Brew}
Grocery Store Games {Menu Monday}
One of my favorite things to do while in the grocery store is to look in other people's carts. It's fascinating to see what people purchase - sometimes I can make a good guess as to what they are making for supper based on the contents of their cart. It's also fascinating to me how… Continue reading Grocery Store Games {Menu Monday}
A New Approach To Meal Planning {Menu Monday}
I've been sharing my weekly menu plans on this blog for almost two years!

Making Sweet Memories {Menu Monday}
It's been ten years since I graduated from college, but I still have what I call "college nightmares."

In my dream, the registrar was extremely hateful and… Continue reading Making Sweet Memories {Menu Monday}
