We started our week in Vegas for Sunday football games and came home to rolling into the birthday week of our middle kiddo. Sunday – Halloweeny Tacos These were fun to make and so cute to get ready for Halloween being right around the corner. We gave them a test run and I think the…

Yay for fall time and cooler days headed our way! We are celebrating jumping into fall by starting this weekend with two big crockpots of green chili. This will be perfect to freeze in smaller batches for cold winter nights that deserve a smothered burrito. My husband and I head to Las Vegas later this…

We are having some work done in our backyard and have had to move the grill into the garage until it is done. I can’t believe how much I miss our grilled dinners. So… if you’re wondering… where are the grilled meals? That’s where. 🙂 Monday – Chicken and Veggie Sheet Pan Meal I have…
Super Easy Cheesy Manicotti
My sister-in-law shared this recipe with me and I just had to give it a try. It is super easy and was a big hit in our house. This makes me want to try a manicotti using ricotta really soon. A big time saver here is not needing to precook the manicotti shells. I loved…
Philly Cheesesteak(ish) Freezer Meal
When our local grocery store had beef on sale, I bought extras to freeze for future meals. Usually I make them into freezer meals when I buy them on sale but I think I didn’t have any mojo for that on this particular day and decided to slice it and then freeze it for it…
Apple Pie Filling
I’ve had going to an apple orchard on my fall bucket list the last couple years and I tend to think about it too late in the season so this year I checked into it early and set myself a reminder. It was fun getting to pick apples right off the trees. Let’s Get Crafty!…

No more denying it… school is back in session. Whoop? Whoop? or EEK? I suppose that our household is a little of both. Saturday – Pulled Pork with Homemade Coleslaw, Corn and Baked Beans My mother-in-law and father-in-law made a very tasty dinner and we had homemade ice cream for dessert. Sunday – Grilled Chicken,…
Peach Cobbler
The peaches have arrived! In anticipation… I have been looking at peach cobbler recipes. We did a peach crisp last year that was really good and this year a peach cobbler sounds like just the ticket. Our littlest kiddo was so excited for peaches that she ate one while we made the peach cobbler. The…

Ready or not… a new school year is upon us! I haven’t been able to sneak in a freezer meal session yet and hoping to do that at some point over the next month or so. That always helps me a ton during the school year. (I wrote this last weekend before school started and…
