Hello from beautiful New Hampshire! We are visiting my in-laws, who recently purchased a circa 1770s farmhouse with a perfect view of Mt. Monadnock. Owen informed us on arriving that he is sad this is just vacation because we don’t get to stay here all the time. I have to agree with Owen, this home is a little slice of heaven on earth.
This week we are for sure having pasta with the bolognese recipe I have shared on the blog, Grammy’s orange chicken as well as dinner at Kimball Farm one night. Beyond that we don’t know what we’re eating, but that seems like some pretty good planning for being in vacation mode. 😉
As usual, please share your weekly menu plans in the comments! And have a great week!
Kimballs for the win!! And the farmhouse sounds dreamy!!
Life is good when you can gaze at Mt. Monadnock, be with family, and be on vacation :-)!
Life is good for me this week down here in PA because Wegmans launched grocery delivery via Instacart. I tried it for the first time and LOVED it! I had 2 extra hours on Saturday while someone shopped for all the groceries on my list and then delivered them right to my front door. How good is that? So good that I made my menu one day earlier!
