Where did the holiday weekend go? I swear it seems like it was just Monday. I want a do-over. Last few days of November will be rainy here, but I’ll take that over snow. We may see the first few flakes later in the week. Not bad, considering I think we saw them in October last year.
Have you started to decorate for the holidays yet? I just didn’t have it in me to get the tree up this weekend. I hope to get it up this weekend, or I may not have a place to live. LOL! Everyone in the house (but me) seems disappointed that it isn’t up yet.
Sunday – Leftovers (I think we are done now)
Monday – Grilled chicken stir fry with roasted veggies & quinoa and salad
Tuesday – Soft tacos, black beans, corn & salad
Wednesday – Burgers, sweet potato puffs, green beans & salad
Thursday – Baked Ziti, steamed broccoli & salad
Friday – MYOP on Udi’s gluten-free crust
Saturday – Pei Wei take out
Guess it is time to start baking for the holidays. I need a plan before I start. I think I will ask the kids to each pick their favorite Christmas Cookie and then add one or two more of my own. That way I am not going nuts and making 15 different kinds of cookies.

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


We always get that rhetorical question. Time just flies every weekend. Your Wednesday menu sounds appetizing! I might cook something similar to it soon!
Thank you!
I want to come to your house for dinner this week! Your menus sound fabulous!
We only put up the stuff because my husband insisted and dragged out all the boxes…I just wasn't feeling it this year – and chose to watch Avery instead when she fussed. :/
Sounds like you've turned this week into a non-stop dinner party! Sounds delicious!
