How was everyone's Thanksgiving? Ours was pretty low key. All our family lives out of state and we weren't able to afford to fly anywhere for Thanksgiving this year. It was probably for the best we didn't plan anything because it snowed and iced here for most of the week and flight cancellations were a mess. Hubby had most of the week off work, so we took the time to deep clean our house and get ...

Meal Plan Monday Week 23 (Unofficial Summer Squash Week!)
Happy Monday! I'm happy to say that Colorado has sunshine today, which means I can finally bust out more summery recipes.
