Weekly Menu & a Giveaway!

These Weekly Menu recipes allow you to get out of that same ol’ recipe rut and try some delicious and easy dishes! This week I highly recommend making the Butternut Squash Parmesan Gratin, the Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Prosciutto Pizza with Balsamic Drizzle, and the Butterscotch Pudding Cream Pie with Toffee Crunch!

Happy Sunday TKW Family! How’s life treating you? Did you have a good week last week? For most folks, it was a short week with the holiday and all. I’m still off work due to this hand surgery and pretty much chomping at the bit to get back. But with this surgery, due to how intricate it was I have to follow doctor’s orders to a “T” otherwise I can cause permanent damage. Man…when did becoming an adult hurt so much? Oy!

Comfort Food Recipes

Now that it’s getting cooler here in the evening I’m able to start publishing some more comfort type food recipes. Soups, chilis, casseroles and tons of baked goods.

I broke out my first pair of comfy pants and a long-sleeved shirt the other evening. We have a big pond on our property (which is still for sale if you’re interested!) that we have baby fish in finally so each evening we’ve been walking down to it to feed them. As we were walking down  I noticed that the leaves were starting to change and even fall. I wonder how I’ll respond/feel when we do move and I no longer have the change in seasons.

For any of you that moved from the east coast to the west coast, how did you handle not having the true change of seasons?
