New recipies

Sometime you know when you reflect back on your weekend and you can just smile? Well that's what are weekend was. There wasn't too much going on, we didn't have plans, but we DID have a great family weekend together.

It seems that since we turned the hour forward the days are beginning to get longer which are allowing us to enjoy more time, not as if we didn't have that time before, but more as if we are aware of it. That probably doesn't make sense, but to me it does.

So what did we do this fine weekend?

We did this....

A little of this....


Alot of this....

and of course this.....

 
Since lent I have not necessarily given something up, but vowed to try and be aware of what we are eating. Our menu has changed at home these last few weeks, Ben and I are much more aware of the importance of healthy eating, and really it wasn't until we had Bridger that we vowed to REALLY make the change.

With two working adults in the household it is SO easy to just say "order a pizza", "Pick up sandwiches" etc, etc. But when a child is in the situation it's important to show them the right choices and of course don't get me wrong, we all need a little fix every once in a while.

So no you won't find me on some crazy diet, no I am not a vegetarian nor am I every wanting to be (I am from Nebraska folks) but I do want to be more aware not only for myself but for my family.


Here are some of the PINTEREST recipes that I pinned and have made over the last few weeks, ALL very good!:
