Hope you’ve all enjoyed your weekend!  It’s been a really relaxing one here – a little baking and cooking to start things off on Saturday morning, some gardening and plenty of walks outside with my hubby.  Our menu plan went pretty well last week:

A few of you commented on my “to do” list on my menu last week and said that you appreciated seeing how we make things happen at our house.  So, I’ll continue to include it – especially because it helps me too!
