I think the “ber” months might be my favorite. The days become crisp, the changing colors and leaves falling, apple cider, and no more sweating!!! Plus it’s nice to cook lovely foods in the oven that make home smell …. Homey. ð❤️
Here’s the plan for the coming week:
Friday - we will be running from place to place so dinner might be picking up a pizza in the way home.
Saturday- dinner at my moms
Sunday - pit luck at church
Monday -pork loin, rice and a veggie
Tuesday - Roasted chicken, mashed potatoes, stuffing, green beans and gravy
Wednesday - youth group
Thursday - Tacos

It's the end of September WHAT! That means we enter the "Holiday" Months! Birthdays, Halloween, a Retreat, Thanksgiving and . .. . Christmas! Whew! Slow down time! :-) I'm sure I say that every year about this time. I will say that September kinda blew right by me though. I'm trying to enjoy each moment and not look too far ahead (even though, technically, that's what I did in my first couple of sentences!) Enough of that - lets check out this weeks menu.
Friday - The teens are heading to a game night at their friend's youth group. Darryl and I will grab something simple.
Saturday -We are going to a birthday party with Darryl's side of the family.
Sunday - I have a choir concert so we usually end up grabbing something
Monday - Shrimp and Grits and Cornbread
Tuesday - Easy Taco Casserole and Salad
Wednesday - Youth Group
Thursday - Oven Roasted Pork Loin, Mac and Cheese and Zucchini

Despite the fact that I didn't post a menu last week, we did still eat. ðð We've been eating pretty simply the last few weeks mostly because I wanted a break from planning (and cooking) meals. No one went hungry and I'm starting to feel like planning dinner again HA!
Here's the plan for the comping week:
Friday: Brats and Hot dogs and French Fries
Saturday - Dinner at my mom's!
Sunday - Baked Potato Bar and Mini Corn Dogs
Monday - Meatball Soup and Bread
Tuesday - Sticky Honey Garlic Sausage Pasta, Green Beans and Garlic Sticks
Wednesday - Youth group - Leftovers OR a simple snack before hand
