Weekly Menu Plan, Sept 7 – Sept 13

We tried the macaroni dish last week, and it was OK.  It was a little on the dry side, so if I made it again, I would probably increase the amount of sauce.  I didn’t get to the sausage and pepper dish, so maybe another time!  We will have some friends over for…

Weekly Menu Plan, Aug 31 – Sept 6

We were able to try the white pizza last week, and it was really good!  I also experimented with cooking the pizza on the grill, and it seemed to work.  We have a charcoal grill, so it was a little challenging to get it to cook evenly.  We did not get to the…

It’s back to school week!  My daughter started preschool last week and my son starts kindergarten this week.  I’m just in awe of how much they’ve grown and how fast.  I know everyone always says that “time flies”, but I just don’t think you can really comprehend the reality of that statement until…

We tried the new tortellini dish last week, and it was worth making again, but I didn’t get to the green beans.  School is just around the corner here, as my daughter starts preschool this week, and my son starts kindergarten next week!  I have such mixed emotions about it, because I know…

How was your weekend?  We took the pace down a quite few notches, and it was amazing. It feels great to have some time to breathe and rest with nowhere to be now and then.  Time at home with my family really recharges me 🙂 I want to make the tortellini bake early…

What a whirlwind trip we had this last weekend… But what a fun time!  It had been 10 years since our last reunion, so it was about time 🙂  I’m still trying to ride out our schedule that’s moving us forward at a breakneck pace.  Maybe once school starts things will slow down?!…

Weekly Menu Plan, July 13 – July 19

We had such a great time celebrating Independence day with our friends and family.  Following that, my husband and I celebrated our wedding anniversary.  And the kids recently started swimming lessons, which meant I missed some work each day.  Last week was very challenging, and I made dinner only twice… Once was egg…

Last week’s new recipe was good!  The kids didn’t care for the kick from the chipotle, but my husband and I liked it a lot.  We also ended up trying another new recipe, too:  Korean Beef Tacos. Both of these were keepers.  Because of this other new recipe, we did not get to…
