Weekly Menu – 8/16/2020

Welcome to the end of another summer weekend! (I know, I’m weeping too.) I can’t believe how quickly August is slipping away. I’m trying to soak up every moment I can. With that in mind, my menu for this week is focused on two key elements: what is seasonal and fresh right this moment (many…

Top Ten! 7/17/2020

Remember when I mentioned in my weekly menu last Sunday that the whole thing was dependent on me getting to the grocery store? Guess who didn’t get to the grocery store. So, in honor of all of the takeout we ate this week to compensate, Top Ten this week is going to (be late! and)…

Weekly Menu – 7/12/2020

This coming week will be a rough one, with some intense (virtual) meetings scheduled at work. I also managed to make it through the weekend accomplishing the following: painted a living room, went to church, bought a couch for my basement, weeded my very weedy yard, gave the pup a bath, went for a long…

Top Ten! 7/7/2020

Top Ten! 4/28/2020

It’s top ten Tuesday! Here’s what I’ve been obsessing over this week. How about you? Share your top ten in the comments! Apple’s and peanut butter – Friends. This was my favorite snack as a kid. Why did I take so long to resurrect it? Sam Hunt’s new album “Southside“ – I loved his first…

Top Ten! 2/17/20

Here’s what I’m most excited about this week! A dawn flight into Chicago – My sister woke me up just as we came over the Windy City. With a last minute 6am flight out of Nashville (see #9), I slept most of the flight, but woke in time to marvel at this beautiful city I…
