Menu 4/2 -4/8 (aka the week of rain)

This week's menu is brought to you by April showers, cool weather, and my need to feel all warm and cozy.  No grilling this week, a lot of soups and crock pot action though!  Yummmm.

Menu 2/19/2017

After a long, relaxing weekend which involved a staycation in Georgetown and eating more in one 24-hour span than we usually do in 48 hours, we have launched into a new week.  The weather forecast for this week is just bizarre, with most of the week in the 60s, more like spring than mid February!

With the weather in mind when making the menu, most of the meals this week are grilled meals for Zach to cook.  I am not a griller, which means at least 60-75% of our spring, summer, and early fall meals are cooked by Zach.  Everything from the meat to the veggies.  It's a wonderful thing to have a husband who likes to cook!

When I started thinking about this blog I really wanted to focus on topics of interest to families.  I am very excited to share our meals and my hope is to share with you one new recipe a week.  

Zach and I meal plan, usually on Saturdays, and he does the grocery shopping with Teddy.  We have our meals mapped out ahead of time and it makes the week so much easier.  Most weeks I will share with you our selection of meals for the week.  You'll see we have a lot of repeats.  Those are what we call "family favorites" - meals that the three of us all like and will eat regularly.  We all have our favorites and unabashedly ask for them on constant rotation.  Mine is burger and fries and Mediterranean Chicken Bake, Zach's is Thai Peanut Broccoli Slaw Stir Fry, Teddy's is salmon cooked any which way and grilled veggies.
