This week is Aaron’s b-day week!! Yay for birthdays!! He will be 29 again (for the 9th time!). We will probably have a “date” night on Saturday to celebrate.
M-Elle is hosting this week’s gluten-free menu swap at La Cocina de Michelle. The ingredient of the week is quinoa! One of my absolute favorite grains. There is so much you can do with quinoa and you can pretty much sub it for rice any time you want. Even Jon likes it!
I have even made veggie burgers using quinoa before..YUM!! Thanks for hosting, M-Elle.

My son and me, November 2000. This is before we were gluten-free/diagnosed Celiac.


I wish I had the gusto and depth of "makeable" recipes to plan a whole week
Jessica,
I am sure you can do it! I find it really helps me stay on track during the week & eat out less.
Aww yay!! Wishing Aaron an early happy birthday – enjoy your "date night" on Saturday
I'm LOVING the menu – you have a delicious week ahead of you, for sure!!
Thanks so much!!
I am excited about Saturday! We may go see Inglourious Basterds too!
Great menu! The squash looks AMAZING! I am bookmarking it for my fall menus. Have a great date night!
Thanks!!!
the pumpkin sounds delish…enjoy the birthday celebrations!
Thanks Cheryl!!
