Hi everyone! I’m getting a late start today after a very long night with our little Owen and another bout of croup. He’s doing well now, but pretty much everyone in the family feels like a zombie. Happy vacation to us! 😉
This is our last week of traveling, so no menu for us once again! But I’ll be back in the game next week. I really appreciate everyone who has been loyally posting menus the last few weeks while I’ve been taking time off from the kitchen. Your dinner plans are wonderful and a great inspiration to everyone.
So, here we go…my weekly beg for your menus! Please share your dinner plans for the week!

We too were traveling, though just this past weekend. The kids and I will also be gone this upcoming Saturday. I find it harder to plan a menu when these interruptions happen. There is normally a natural flow to our days (meal wise) that doesn’t happen when you skip two or three of them.

Sorry Owen is sick 🙁 I’ve been diffusing essential oils lately and they seem to be helping our immune systems. My daughter started with a cold, I diffused for a couple days, and it never really took hold and she’s fine.
