Weekly Menu: August 24, 2014 - August 30, 2014

How in the world is next week the last week of August?  Please, someone explain that to me. Anyways, here's what we are eating...and I promise to update the links above with these recipes ASAP! Sunday, August 24 Soy Marinated Flank Steak Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Apples Roasted Red Potatoes *So...full disclosure.  I am a lazy cook.  If the recipes scares me (at all) I move on.  But I have some friends who are AMAZING cooks.  And lordy, can they plate a meal.  One of those friends, is my ex-roommate and dear friend Katie Guymon.  Follow here blog her:   http://onceacook.blogspot.com Monday, August 25 Cheesy Honey Mustard Chicken Rice Pilaf Green Beans Tuesday, August 26 Buffalo Mac and Cheese *Truth be told...I cooked a bunch of chicken breasts in the crockpot last week.  I shredded it, used half in a recipe last week and will use the rest for this!

Here I Go Again...

Remember back in February when I said I was "back in the saddle?"  That was a lie.  Who was I kidding?  Pregnant.  New job.  Need I say more? So now it's August.  Baby B is 3 months old.  I've returned to work, and it feels like a combination of I never left and I'm new all over again. But...I'm really proud of myself.  I planned our August menu before returning to work, and we (mostly) stuck to it.  See picture (isn't it so beautiful and organized?) Some of my closest friends are new moms either returning to work for the first time.  And, if I can help them, or you, with that transition just for one minute with this blog...I will do my best to keep adding to it. So, here's my attempt (again) to start blogging and posting again.   Here is what we ate this past week, I'll do a separate post for next week.  Also...if you do not get your groceries delivered.  You should seriously look into it.  SERIOUSLY.
