I feel like we went away for the weekend, when really we were only 20 miles from home at a ball tournament. Five games later, we’re back in action today, and the menu plan is somewhat on “repeat” from last week as I switched and changed things around to meet the ins and outs of the days. There is much catching up to do around here, and I am most thankful for this Reset Monday!

- sausage patties, fried eggs, blueberry muffins (requested by my basketball player)
- fast food, enjoyed at the park on a warm February day ~ craziness!

Any combination of homemade granola, oatmeal, parfaits, eggs, muffins (morning glory muffins in the freezer), french toast, omletes

I’m not sure if I have enough tortillas, but I’d really like to make double or triple batches of the pot pie and burritos for the freezer while I’m at it! Doing any batch cooking/baking at your house this week?
Thanks for always keeping it real and saying that you had fast food. I read other blogs who are always about planning, homemade, never eat something non whole food and it sometimes gets discouraging. I live in the real world and am so glad that you do too! It makes me love this blog even more knowing that I can see someone living a life like I do. Thanks again for being a great blogger!
This makes me smile, Stephanie. Keeping it real… it’s the only way!
I made a batch of morning glory muffins this weekend and they are SO good! I’d never even heard of them until your blog and then I ran across the recipe when I was looking in my King Arthur whole grains cookbook. My first grader doesn’t like sandwiches everyday for lunch so sometimes she gets muffins to mix it up – and we do homemade ‘lunchables’ with meat, real cheese, and triscuits . . . And we were out of muffins! I probably wouldn’t have made them except you’d mentioned them.
Excellent! I need to take photos next time I make them and post the recipe here.
I love your blog and thought I would take a second and tell you! Thanks for taking the time out of your day to share snippets with us.
Thank you! Notes like this help me keep on keeping on.
