weekly menu 4-13-26

Happy Monday, TKW Family! I hope you had a fantastic week last week! Did you ever have one of those weeks where you were non-stop on the go, yet come Saturday night, you’re exhausted, yet you feel like you accomplished nothing?

That’s how my week was. I had so much planned, yet barely got to any of “my stuff” because I had a billion other things that needed urgent attention. I swear, this week I’m shutting off the world just so I can focus and get back into my groove.

What Chef Lori is Up To This Week

  • SHEET PAN RECIPES: I have a couple of shoots to get done this week, so I can post them to the website.
  • DESSERT ANYONE?: It’s been a hot minute since I’ve posted a dessert recipe. And even though I make sweets all the time for here and friends, I rarely post those recipes. That being said, would you like a new cookie, crisp/crumble, or maybe a bar cookie recipe? Let me know!
  • REQUESTS: Have a recipe request? Click the button below and shoot me an email!

Did you make a recipe? Leave a blog comment!

So why do I ask this? Two reasons:

  1. Honest feedback is appreciated. It helps me learn and grow.
  2. Most folks read the comments before deciding whether to make a recipe.

This is how I grow and become a better Chef. I truly appreciate honest feedback on the recipes you’ve made by following the instructions as written! The most critical thing you can do for me is comment on the blog recipe post. 

When I look at someone else’s recipe, I read the comments, and that’s honest feedback to me. So when you make a recipe of mine or plan on making it, leave a comment on the post. Everyone else who goes to my site, and I would genuinely appreciate it!
