Menu Monday Week 47

November 28, 2016 By Heather Solos Leave a Comment As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

Heather says

Transparency – About six weeks ago my insomnia got bad enough that I finally visited my doctor. Bad enough is my euphemism for completely out of hand and I wish I’d gone sooner. The funk is clearing and I’m sleeping better which is giving me energy beyond the have-tos.… Keep reading...

Heather says

This is one of those weeks where having a menu plan for the week is critical to our staying on budget. Most weeks, when I’m not traveling for work, I time shift. In other words, instead of working the standard 9 am – 5 pm, I am on 6 am – 2 pm.… Keep reading...

Late summer is difficult around here. You’ve got the usual back to school hassle and sports starting up with four kids, we enter birthday season mid-August and before any of that happens, I start dreading an anniversary.

Every year I delude myself thinking that the end of the school year will result in some down time.

Heather says:

Ray, my fiancé, is from Southern California and is the reason tacos seem to be on the menu every week. 

Any suggestions for dinner this week, Ray?

Heather says:

So, let’s pretend last week didn’t happen, as it felt like herding cats more than anything. As an aside, is the site loading any faster for you? I’ve made some changes and I’m hoping they’ve helped, but I think some of the image changes made them look less sharp. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯… Keep reading...

Last week veered wildly off-track due to a short notice business trip to Asheville. Thankfully, I love that city and its food scene. I had lunch with a good friend at a place called 12 Bones and had jalapeno cheese grits with my pulled pork, man oh man.… Keep reading...
