    My teenaged son has taken to saying that to me on a regular basis and it always makes me smile. Since it’s been a while since I’ve done any blogging, I thought it was a fun way to ask how you’ve been, let you know what’s on the menu this week, and hopefully put a…

    This week is my darling husband’s birthday. He is the vegetarian in the family so after church Sunday we went to an entirely vegan restaurant called Planta. Everything we tasted from sushi to pizza to reuben sandwiches was plant based and delicious. We can’t wait to go back! DJ’s epic bday party is Saturday and…

    The homeschool life keeps getting better! Today we are planning lots of writing time, conversations in Spanish, a look at life through a microscope, a trip to the educational supplies store, a long walk in the breeze, and a week of healthy meals to fuel our minds and bodies.

    Happy February! I can’t believe my little prince and fellow blogger will be 16 years old in just over a week. So much to write about, so little time. But what does his birthday have to do with this week’s menu plan, you might ask? Apparently everything. It is my constant joy to think of…

    Well, I’m just now catching my breath from spending the long weekend in NC with an amazing group of teens, worshiping the Lord of all creation morning, noon, and night. The camp staff prepared thoughtful, delicious meals for us and served them up with love. What a gift! Since we’ve been back, we have enjoyed…

    It’s time I shared something with you. I don’t like doing the same thing over and over. But planning a weekly menu is something I have done for years and once I got past the “this is boring ” phase I found the rhythm very rewarding. Last week we ended up eating out several times…

    I originally called this post sabotaged, but then I changed it. My menu has been a hilarious disaster since I blogged about it last week. Here’s why. Monday was a bust because I didn’t realize the tempeh had to be marinated and we were out of sauerkraut, so we just had the leftover lentil soup,…
