Weekly Menu Plan, Sept 1 – Sept 7

It’s another busy week for our family!  Luckily, I will have the help of a few meals “out” at church.  Even though mid-week will be super busy, I will have some time on the weekends (so thankful for a long one!!) to try a few new recipes.  We were invited over to our…

Weekly Menu Plan, Aug 18 – Aug 24

We were so excited to come home last week from our trip to the lake to find one of our hens had started laying eggs.  Our fried egg sandwiches were delicious with fresh eggs!  We have been getting about one egg a day more or less.  Once the other two start laying, we…

We are back from our long-weekend trip to the lake!  We were treated by my in-laws to a meal out at a German restaurant that was quite good.  They had a great view and multiple hummingbird feeders that were quite busy!  The best part about the weekend, however, was the time that we…

We made it through our super-busy week last week!  And, we enjoyed a meal out with my mom, as she decided to visit one last time before the school year started.  It was a nice treat! This coming weekend, we will be visiting both family and friends at Lake of the Ozarks!  We…

Weekly Menu Plan, July 14 – July 20

Wow, is it starting to get hot here!  And I can’t remember the last time we got a good rain.  The garden is still surviving well with daily watering, and I’ve now made 5 jars or regular dill pickles and two jars of refrigerator veggie slaw (inspired by this recipe).  (By the way,…

Weekly Menu Plan, July 7 – July 13

We had an awesome Fourth of July last week.  There were so many people, so much good food, and so many memories!  I think we may just have to do it again next year 🙂 Over the last few days, my cucumbers have taken off!  I think I’m going to try my hand…

Weekly Menu Plan, June 30 – July 6

Are you looking forward to a big Independence Day get-together?  The 4th of July has always been one of my personal favorites!  Growing up, we would spend every 4th of July with two other families, and we would always have lots of food and of course tons of fun!  We would jokingly ask…

Weekly Menu Plan, June 23 – June 29

We had a great weekend… It was very productive and full of family time.  We spent a lot of time outside, and even picked our first tomato of the season!  I am so excited to eat all of the fresh produce that I (hope) we will have this summer!  I happened upon some…
