We’re not entertaining today, but I still want to enjoy the holiday with a fresh and delicious summer meal worthy of this official Kickoff-To-Summer weekend. The weather is certainly feeling festive today; it’s upwards of 90 degrees here in Philly. Because about the only meat we have left in our freezer is boneless breasts of [...]
This week’s meal planning was easy because I went to the farmers’ market on Saturday and picked up a few meat items and some fresh veggies. I am still waiting on my beef order to be ready, and I’m about due to drive out to the farm where I like to stock up on chicken, [...]
This has been a whirlwind of a weekend, and I really want to write about it, but that will have to wait. Duty calls. Anyone want to work the elementary school book fair for me today so I can stay home and get caught up on blogging and design?? Anyone?? K’thanksalot. In the meantime, my [...]
It just doesn’t let up, this spring schedule. This week on my calendar I have one band concert, one baseball practice, two baseball games, two blogging events, one church event, a Mother’s Day Tea, a play rehearsal, a ballet lesson, AND I’m hosting Mother’s Day dinner for 12 after church on Sunday. Can I get [...]
Better late then never, right? This week it’s all about keeping it simple because as spring is now in full swing, so are our schedules! MONDAY: Easter dinner leftovers: ham, mac-and-cheese, and fresh spinach sauteed lightly in olive oil. TUESDAY: Ina Burgers on the grill, fresh raw veggies and potato salad, if I get ambitious. [...]
It’s a struggle not to start every single one of these posts with a diatribe against Mondays. On the other hand, Monday is kind of like a blank slate, so I suppose when you look at it that way, it isn’t so bad. And besides, the kids are all in school on Mondays, so hip [...]
The weather’s finally looking more spring-like here in Philly, and I’d love to say that I’m grilling every meal this week, but I’m rather limited by what I have in my freezer, so it looks like I’m only using the grill once. I need to stock up on chicken pieces and burger meat and steaks. [...]
This week’s menu plan is a bunch of old favorites and one new one. I love, love, LOVE shrimp and grits, and when I came across this recipe, I KNEW I had to make it. Best of all, shrimp and grits is gluten-free! Weekly Meal Plan MONDAY: Shrimp and Grits with sauteed baby greens (I [...]
So far this week’s been a wash. I downloaded Elisabeth Hasselbeck’s book, The G-Free Diet, on Friday morning while I was getting my pre-beach trip mani/pedi and I’ve been immersed in it ever since. I’m still having some symptoms reminiscent of gluten exposure, and I can’t help but wonder if I got glutened again over [...]
I will refrain from bemoaning the fact that somehow it is Monday yet again, but I will say this: Daylight Savings is for the birds. #thatisall So seeing how it IS Monday, yet again . . . (sorry, couldn’t help myself), it is time to put together a meal plan for the week. Last Friday [...]
