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}

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}

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}

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}

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}

One of the best things about Daylight Savings Time is still having natural light at supper time! We can just file that under "things bloggers care about." Ha! We had some delicious meals in the past week, but they look even better in natural lighting. 🙂 Here's what we had to eat at my house… Continue reading Menu Monday {3.21.22}

At least once a month I order groceries from Aldi using Instacart. I've had such great experiences with their grocery pickup service and usually spend less than 5 minutes in the Aldi parking lot - they come right out, load up the groceries and I'm on my way! In addition to the pantry staples I… Continue reading Menu Monday + Aldi Favorites {3.7.22}

I have two meals to share with you today that can be prepped early in the day, making supper time a breeze! For the baked potato soup, I wrap my potatoes in foil and put them in the slow cooker on low for 8 hours. When I get home from work, all I have to… Continue reading Menu Monday + Make Ahead Suppers {2.21.22}

Don't those scones look amazing? I hadn't made this recipe (linked in the menu below) in quite a while and decided to remedy that! These scones are so easy to make and always turn out beautifully for me. I usually only plate a couple at a time, because they dry out quickly. The rest stay… Continue reading Menu Monday {2.7.22}
