Weekly Meal Plan for August 14, 2023

Hi friends! Eliza Dog and I are at home in Alabama this week. She's actually at doggie daycare right now. She knew right where to go when I got her out of the truck. I hope that means she likes it LOL She will go back on Thursday. I plan on heading to Huntsville for the day and having lunch with Lo and going to the cross stitch/quilting store.

Weigh in on Saturday went ok, I was up .4. I have TOTALLY eaten off my plan all weekend. I ordered pizza cause I lost track of time cutting out a new Halloween quilt for Jenna. And yesterday Billy and I had foot long coneys from Sonic for dinner before he went back to Georgia. But, I'm back on track this morning. I hit up our Publix after dropping Eliza off and grocery shopped so I am good. I picked up a pancake/waffle mix that is Keto. I'm wanting a waffle. I'll let you know how it tastes next week.

Here's the menu plan for the week...

Monday - chicken strips with roasted radishes and broccoli and cheese sauce. I really liked the roasted radishes I made a couple weeks ago so I'm doing them again.

Tuesday - shrimp tacos with coleslaw. Yes, this is the same recipe as a couple weeks ago that I LOVED.

Wednesday - pulled pork with coleslaw. I bought burger buns for Jenna and Em and I'll probably eat mine without any bread.

Thursday - I found this good looking recipe for cauliflower rice with sausage. They called it a dirty rice swap, but it looks more like jambalaya.

Friday - avocado corn chicken salad. I found this recipe on Instagram.

I'm figuring I will have TONS of leftovers this week since I'm here by myself. I'm sure Jenna and Em will eat with me most nights. Jen was happy I'd be home for a bit.

Until next time...

Ready for the rodeo?

Well, after being away from sewing and listing and selling for a couple of years, I've finally got something new up. I used an adorable cowboy and cowgirl fabric from Michael Miller and made this skirt and top that would be perfect for a trip to the rodeo. Or it would be great for western day at school. Feel free to check it out...even bid on it ;0) http://cgi.ebay.com/Custom-Boutique-Rascals-Western-Cowgirl-CBD-FCBM_W0QQitemZ280255354898QQihZ018QQcategoryZ79714QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Lover Unleashed by JR Ward

Are you reading the Black Dagger Brotherhood series? If you're not, can I ask why not? And if you're not, I'm going to tell you that I think you need to stop reading this for a few minutes and go to Amazon or Barnes & Noble or some website and either buy you a paper copy or download a copy of Dark Lover and start reading the series (This is a series that HAS to be read in order). This can wait. Go do that and then come back and see what I'm going to say. So this was book 9 in the series. Payne and Manny's story. And while we got their story, I felt it was eclipsed by Payne's brother Vishous. I love getting lost in the Brothers' world. When I open the book and start reading, my children and home all fade away and I'm in Caldwell with them (is Caldwell, NY a real place?). We got introduced to some new vampires in this installment and that was pretty cool. There was NO Lesser pov here and that was more than pretty cool. Just between us

A Lady Awakened by Cecilia Grant

I won an ARC of this on Goodreads - thank you so much! I enjoyed it so much! My favorite romances are of the Regency period and this is that time period. But that is where all similarities to others end. Mrs. Russell (I just can't bring myself to call her Martha LOL) is a new widow who comes to realize she will loose her home and her dowry if she doesn't produce a male heir. The kicker to this is that the late Mr. Russell's brother is a total jerk-face who has taken advantage of women in their home when he lived there as a young man. Enter Mr. Theo Mirkwood...the rogue who has been sent to the country as a punishment by his father. Mrs. Russell employs Mr. Mirkwood as her "stud" for a month so she can conceive a child and claim the inheritance. Mrs. Russell believes she can't take any pleasure from their daily (later it becomes nightly) encounters. Theo eventually changes her mind. Martha is so set on her plan to thwart her late hus

Until Next Time...
