More Than A Song

I meant to include this picture with my menu plan but totally forgot about it! Stacy and I went to the farmer’s market on Saturday, a first for us I think. And we both bought things to use this week…..she pictured hers a day or so ago and you can see it here. She had […]

I’m home this week and hopefully so is my hubby so maybe meals will actually be cooked here this week! Although, I am feeling sick with a cold so we’re planning easy things. Check out Laura’s place for her menus/ideas and all the other participants. Monday…..all on the grill if it’s not raining, chicken, pineapple, […]

“Down here all the fish is happy” Last week I wrote that I would fix tilapia one night and a couple of people asked me about it, and what it was! Sometimes I take it for granted that things are the same in all parts of the country or world and it may not always […]

I probably shouldn’t even try to participate this week! Recently my meals/menus have not been happening as planned and this week could be the same way again. I think I’m only going to plan a couple of things because of that. Not cooking much, it could be a good thing I suppose. 🙂 Be sure […]

This is going to be another one of those weeks where our meals might not happen as planned………Vacation Bible School starts for me today and I’ll be busy with a very long week! Also hubby has some work to do that might take him away at meal time and I usually don’t want to cook […]

I’ll have a short week again cooking, a good thing I guess! But will try to have a plan for the part of the week that I am cooking. Hubby had to work out of town a few days last week so some of my meals didn’t happen and I’ll try again to have them […]

Happy Memorial Day! Hope some of you are enjoying a long weekend…….hubby has to work today so not much going on here. This will be a short week for me but I’m making an abbreviated plan anyway. As always, thanks to Laura for hosting us each week! Monday……Pasta salad, grilled chicken, corn on cob Tuesday……night […]

Last week I got a bit off with meals because hubby was out of town, no point making a big casserole just for me! I sorta like it when it’s less cooking though, maybe that’s not a bad thing. 😉 Hopefully I’ll stay on track this week, unless he has to make a last minute […]

Several people asked about one of the things on my menu this week and when I fixed this once before I got some comments about it too. It’s the Shrimp and Wild Rice Casserole that I made about a month or so ago, then used the leftovers for quesadillas………they were probably the BEST quesadillas I’ve […]

It’s Monday and I’ve had such a long weekend……seeing lots of family, friends, Mother’s day and a graduation all rolled into one! Had a great time but I’m so tired I can’t see straight, much less even try to plan meals for the week! But I’m kinda, sorta trying and it all might change as […]

Another Monday and time to plan for the week. Thanks Laura for hosting us…..I think we all enjoy seeing what others are cooking and getting new recipes to try! Sunday………Deer tenderloin, couscous, baby peas Monday……..leftovers for hubby, I’m going to a mother-daughter banquet with SIL and MIL at her church Tuesday……..Hamburgers, we bought tickets for […]

When we took our recent road trip with friends, one brought along a snack mix to eat that included almonds. We got to talking about nuts and the fact that they are good for you, heart healthy too. I think it should just be a little handful a day, like 7-10 almonds maybe. I’ve been […]

Monday……..going to our friend’s house to watch 24! They’re cooking, I’m bringing salad Tuesday…….grilled salmon & veggies, salad Wednesday…church supper Thursday……Meat loaf, green veggies, corn on cob Friday……….Chicken, not sure what else because I’m also cooking for a big family whose dad just had quadruple bypass surgery. weekend……tbd later! I did pretty good last week […]

Monday………Baked fish, smashed potatoes, broccoli Tuesday……..Lemon pepper pork tenderloin, roasted sweet potatoes, green beans Wednesday….church supper Thursday……Chicken pot pie, corn on cob, salad Friday………..leftovers, because I don’t think we can eat all this food without having leftovers! I’m trying once again to whittle down some of the food I have put up in my freezer, […]

I hope everyone had a good weekend and not too much trouble from the storms that passed through part of the South. We gave a dinner party and shower for another engaged couple Saturday night so of course it rained! It seems to rain every time we give a party; most of the really bad […]
