These Weekly Menu recipes allow you to get out of that same ol’ recipe rut and try some delicious and easy dishes!
Happy Monday, TKW Family! I hope you had a fantastic week last week! Are you y’all ready for Thanksgiving? Our house is cleaned and prepared for putting up the Christmas decorations. I have some stuff already prepped for Thanksgiving. I swear, 4 days of work for 10 minutes of eating… doesn’t seem right.
Well, the rains came…and never left. I was ready to build an ark, to say the least! Geesh! I’m not sure why we bothered putting 1000 feet of new irrigation lines when we’re pretty much living in the marshlands now. Good lord, I shouldn’t need a moat to get to my front door.
What Chef Lori is Up To This Week
- THANKSGIVING: Since it’s just the two of us, you’d think I’d do something small, but that’s not the case. I’m a creature of tradition, so I have to go all out on the foods. It’s how Mom did it.
- ALL THINGS CHRISTMAS: The day after Thanksgiving, we’ll start decorating. I’ll start making my cookie dough and finishing up my contracts. I hope to take the last 3 weeks of December off as your girl needs a break.
