Before I had kids, I skipped a lot of meals. Yeah, I know that ALL THE EXPERTS talk about how bad that kind of thing is, but I just didn’t feel like eating breakfast and lunch. But then I had kids. And you know what? APPARENTLY, KIDS NEED TO EAT LUNCH EVERY DAY. And the …
September killed my meal planning y’all. I mean it happens every year, so you’d think I’d get used to it, but I never do. Every back-to-school, my Betty Crocker Good and Easy Cookbook gets way more use than it should in a month. Anyway, in an effort to get back on track, I am making …

August is here! This is my back-to-school month. Even though we homeschool, I take summers off (I’m old-fashioned if you hadn’t noticed!), and we start school at the beginning of September. This is one of my weeks for planning and preparing, so my notes for this week are simple, but here is the meal plan …
