I can’t believe it’s already July 7!  The summer is simply flying by.  My papers and projects all went well, so now I’m back to blogging.  It was good to take a break in order to focus, but I did miss it.
Since my husband is coming back from his trip today, I have some special [...]

We’re in crisis mode this week, so don’t look for glamor on the menu below.  Fast, easy, and simple are key words at the moment.  The end of the week is especially leftover-heavy since my husband will be out of town.
Monday: Rotisserie chicken, green salad with oranges, red onion, avocado, and orange vinaigrette (recipe forthcoming), leftover baked [...]

It’s menu planning time again, and, boy, do I need it!  Last week was hectic, and this week will likely be even more so.  Trying to be realistic, I’ve scheduled easy meals, and I’m prepping lots of raw vegetables for random munching and snacking.  I’m a stress eater, so it’s important for me to keep healthy [...]

I have got a lot of catching up to do in this house, especially when it comes to using up the fantastic vegetables I’ve been buying at the farmers’ market.  The meals I had planned for last week produced a lot more leftovers than I anticipated, so I never did get to all of the [...]

I am so sorry for not blogging over the last few days.  Although you haven’t seen the fruits of my labor, I really have been working on several posts, including a step-by-step photo guide to making cultured vegetables.  I plan to post that in the next couple of days.  Last week was just surprisingly stressful and busy–one of those weeks [...]

I know this post is a day late, but with the holiday I really didn’t have my act together yesterday.  You’ll notice that for the first couple of days I have different plans for my husband than I do for me.  That’s because I was juice fasting last week (I’ll post about that experience a little [...]

Menu Plan Monday

When I plan our weekly menus in advance, not only do I feel more organized, we save money on eating out, waste less food, and eat more healthfully.  Menu Plan Monday (MPM) is a blogging event hosted every week by Organizing Junkie.  Although I do try to plan our meals every week, I have been a bit lax over the [...]
