I know I took a break from menu posting. We remodeled our kitchen! It was definitely something I’m glad I did, and something I wish I had food planed better! I’ll write a post on the ordeal! Dinner for 4 with a crockpot and a toaster oven!(yes, I am excited.)
Fortunately for us all, the kitchen [...]
Really, Halloween on a Monday? I know Halloween falls on a work/school night 5 times out of 7 but Monday? I call Trick! With that poor calendering, I opted for a simple menu tonight, working in birthday, hockey, and the fact that the first winter cold of the season has settled into the household. Crock [...]
Another week, another menu! Indian summer messes with me. My internal clock says it’s time for cool weather and savory foods, the skies above think it’s still time for margaritas and cool crisp salads. I’ve got a mix of things going, since it is still awesome grilling weather.
Monday
Coconut curry lentil soup -
Tuesday
Chicken with Artichokes
Wednesday
Beef Kabobs
Thursday
Thai [...]
Last week, in a misguided fit over my children being lame, I didn’t make a dinner menu. There is nothing like being equally stupid to make you pull your big girl pants back on. Dinner was frequently late because nothing was defrosted, or even purchased! Lunches were a mess because I didn’t have food cooked [...]
It’s a crazy time of year, as we ramp back up into school, sports, activities and the last camping trips as Autumn takes hold. My brain and body are telling me it’s time for stews, casseroles and warm savory dishes designed to keep back the cold and uplift us in the fading light.
My weather forecast [...]
Back by popular demand, I’m posting my weekly dinner menu again. I’ve long maintained that planning your weekly menu saves you time, stress and money. If my kids ask “what’s for dinner mom?!” I just simply point to the white board where the weekly schedule, including dinner menu, is kept, or I answer: “For you? [...]
Summer is here, bringing yummy, luscious cherries. Growing up I had a Bing cherry tree in the back yard and, to this day, those deep purple cherries are still my favorite.
A pie filling vexed me a bit on my new GAPS/PALEO style diet. Thickeners are out, and with my allergy to maltose, the ubiquitous corn [...]
I’ve been absent a good long while. I had a reason, and now I’m back. The reason – and my return – is because my kitchen has taken a different path. The reaction from the family is mixed.What happened to me? Well, I just wasn’t feeling right. Never actually bad mind you, just never wonderfully [...]
The last half of last week was filled with Wedding Festivities. 4 straight days of not having to plan, cook or clean up. It was good.
This week however, is back to our usual state of madness. Pro hockey, hockey tournament, the ballet, you name it, we’ll probably be at it! So to feed this very [...]
Last week was Thanksgiving. One whole week centered around one meal. Really it’s all about cooking one day and eating it for 4. Here we are on Monday and I STILL have turkey left over. I’m not complaining, I’m calling it LUNCH! However others are not so enamored with turkey any more, so [...]
