Since we last talked life has changed a little. (Again) When
the heck is life not changing, right?! Jobs have been rearranged, again, and we
are adjusting to a new schedule, again. Change is good. <3
This post I wanted to dedicate to sharing with you all our
menu for two weeks and share some of our meal planning. I love when people
share their meal ideas because I am always looking for new ones!
We love whole foods in this family, we love nourishing foods
in this family, we love to stay on budget in this family and we love quick
meals that meet all these requirements in our family. I am learning to love my
crock pot since three days of the week I get off at 5:00 and Ollie wants
dinner at 5. Aye!
