Planning Our Week (in Food)

It’s been a long time since I planned out our dinners for the week, but I’ve finally made the time to work on it.  With school starting back and kids activities Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday, things have been quite hectic around here.  Here’s what I hope to serve this week… we’ll see how it goes ;-) ~

MondayGrilled Tuna with broccoli rice casserole and cinnamon apples

Tuesday - Pizza Croissants (courtesy of Tricia at Once A Month Mom), Corn on the Cob and fruit cup of some sorts

Wednesday - Lasagna (Stouffers lasagna is on sale this week), salad and garlic bread

Thursday – Taco Night! Soft tacos, Spanish rice and veggies

Friday - Grilled Lime Chicken Kabobs (Thanks Paula Deen!); black beans w/ rice and Yogurt parfaits.

Saturday - TBD (probably left overs)

Sunday – TBD (probably a pasta dish like my Mexican Pasta Bake)



School’s Back, It’s Time to Relax!

schoolsbackI don’t know about you, but I thought things would be easier once the boys were both in school. Boy was I wrong.  Having two children in school is a lot of work. From homework to after school activities, it seems I’m running around even more than ever.

If you are like me, exhausted after a mere month of school (sad, really…) than you’ll definitely want to check out an event that I am excited to be a part of through my other blog, Family Friendly Cincinnati:  Cincy Chic‘s School’s Back, Moms Relax event on September 22nd.

Hosted at Ambience Salon Spa in West Chester from 6-9pm, the fabulous evening will include complimentary spa treatments, giveaways,  shopping and product sampling from vendors like Votre Vu by Julena Bingaman, Slumber Parties by Stacey, Just Jewelry, Scentsy Consultant Marianne Breneman, and Jessie Krieger Farmers Insurance Agency. You’ll even be able to register to win a weekend Lexus lease and a bracelet from Richter and Phillips.

School’s Back, Moms Relax is FREE to attend but they do hope you’ll RSVP in advance to help them plan for the evening.  RSVP for School’s Back, Moms Relax
