Ahh...this recipe just screams FALL to me. I will be adding it to our menu for next week. Do you plan out your menu for the week or are you a daily planner? We (hubby and I) usually plan our menu on Sunday and do the food shopping for the week then. Of course, we are running back out to the store at times because I can never fully remember everything. Why is that haha!!! Anyway, this routine seems to work well for our house. It helps us stay on track and not order out if we already have a plan. Which in turn, will hopefully help our waistlines!!!
We are doing well on our training. I was so excited because we actually were able to run together yesterday since it was a Holiday for his office. The kiddos were in school, so we were able to enjoy a nice day with our 2 year old.
I am hoping to be able to spend some more time on my blog next week. I feel it has been a bit neglected...and I apologize. I go to the doc on Thursday, so hopefully we will figure out my hand situation. Until then...have a wonderful Tuesday!!!
I love this quote...one of my favorite things...an autumn morning!!!
There ought to be a way to combine "autumn" and "morning" into one word, the combination of the two is special enough to be its own entity.
