I didn’t end up creating a menu plan last week because we were out of town over the weekend and I just didn’t get it done. I can tell you that our wallets and waistlines both saw just what failing to plan does… I spent more money eating out and I’m sure that equaled more…

Strawberry Pomegranate Vitamin Burst Float
Leave it to me to turn something good for you into something not as good for you. Did you know Green Mountain Coffee has a line of wellness K-Cup packs? It’s true!
Simple Treats {Skittles Marshmallow Pops}
I did something ahead of time for a holiday. Can you believe it? I’m feeling rather on the ball right now. I signed up to bring treats to Leah’s Valentine’s Day party at her preschool. I don’t usually do that… I typically leave treat bringing up to the more creative, “pinteresting” moms, but I figured…
Bush’s Beans Recipe Exchange {Recipe: Chili Bean Cheese Queso}
A simple Bean and Cheese Queso recipe featuring Bush’s Chili Beans. I recently realized I do everything a bit backwards on my blog. While everyone has been posting their favorite super bowl recipes, I wait until the day after to share what I brought instead of what I would bring. I must be such a…
Dine & Dish Menu Plan: February 3rd – 9th
Happy February, friends! It’s already that time again where I’m sharing our dinner menu for the week.
Food Styling Challenge {White Chocolate Confetti Cake}
Cake decorating is not my forte, at all. You might remember that when I took a cake decorating class through Wilton several years ago, I made roses that looked like cabbage heads. My skills are quite comical. Well, my daughter, Kelly, is currently taking a cake decorating class for 4-H. She seems to be a…
Mushroom Love {Recipe: Mushroom & White Bean Tostada}
There are two foods in this world that could convince me to become a vegetarian: mushrooms and beans. I love both and every time I taste a dish featuring either of these ingredients, I seriously consider giving up my carnivore ways. The first time I had mushrooms and white beans combined was when I tasted…
Dine & Dish Menu Plan for January 20th – 26th
Do you ever have those days where you just don’t feel like cooking? Well, I was less than motivated to cook on a few days last week, so you will see some things that didn’t get made last week on our menu this week. I hope you’ll take a minute to share what’s going to…
When Breakfast Saves Dinner {Recipe: Simple Spinach Quiche}
When someone asks me what my favorite tip is to simplify mealtime, besides menu planning, my answer would be to let breakfast save dinner. Breakfast saves dinner around our house quite often. In fact, even though I’ve been trying my hardest to stick to a weekly menu plan, there are times in our real…
Morning Chaos {Recipe: Breakfast Cookies}
Mornings around our house are usually mass chaos. No matter what I do to try to be organized the night before, mornings don’t seem to change. In fact, we have a little celebration in the car on the way to school on those rare days where I didn’t have to turn into “raging maniac mom”…
