Whew! What a weekend! We are ready for some routine and some quiet and some normal. Hmmm… wonder if we’ll get any of that this week?!
I’m picking 2-3 zucchini from the garden daily. I’ve dug up my new potatoes and my squash is ready to explode! Lots of zucchini and squash in the menu for the next several weeks… until we all get sick of it and I freeze it for soups and breads over the winter.
Here’s what we’re eating this week.
