Weekly Meal Plan – 9/18 – 9/24
Happy Sunday, friends! I’ve got a long to-do list to get through today with tasks for work and things around the house, but I’m refreshed and ready to approach it after a nice lazy day yesterday. My family and I just hung around the house, watched TV, and relaxed pretty much all of Saturday. We…

Weekly Meal Plan – 8/14 – 8/20
Happy Sunday! This weekend I’ve really been trying to embrace my yearly theme of “balance.” I’ve admittedly fallen off track a bit with that (if you read my recent post about life as a blogger and mom, I’m sure you can see that, haha). You know how it goes – projects take longer than expected,…
Weekly Meal Plan – 8/7 – 8/13
Happy Sunday, ya’ll! I’m at home this afternoon doing meal planning, along with recipe development and food photography for some upcoming content.
