We wrapped up the last week of August with the first week of school! I have a delightful bunch of new students for the fall semester, and I can already tell we’re going to have lots of fun together, and of course learn a lot too.
To kick off our back-to-school menu planning here’s what helped us make it through the week:

That cherry coffee cake sounds amazing! I'm off to go check out your fall recipes pin board. Great menu!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kelly! We love the coffee cake. It's actually a running joke in my family that it's the "one thing" my mom makes that my husband likes her version of better than mine :) Regardless, it's a hit!
DeleteI am going to have to look closer at your dinner menu and get on planning guy own better this next week now that school is back in session and I am busier than ever! Recently though, I made a peach dessert and thought it might be one you would like to see if you wanted to try it!

The peach dessert looks yummy! Reminds me of a dessert my grandmother makes.
