Hello Old Friend...

It's been a while.  =)  I have had a ton going on.  I'm currently studying for my real estate licensing exam and we just got back from an amazing vacation.  More on that later!

I have decided to change up the way I meal plan.  I feel like we are always eating the same things over and over again.  I know mini hot dogs in a crescent roll are yummy but really?  I consider myself a pretty advanced home cook.  I'm not scared to try anything so why don't I?

Enter my new way to meal plan.  Theme nights.  Plus a weekly culinary challenge thought up by myself and some lovely girl friends of mine.  To begin, my themes will be Meatless Monday, Taco Tuesday, Slow Cooker Wednesday, Pizza Thursday and Challenge Friday.  I generally have something going on one night during the week so I may end up playing catch up on the weekends and we usually eat out 1 night per week as well.

I started last night so here is a sneak peek of a IG picture from last night.  I took pics and plan to have it up on the blog very soon!


It was delicious!  Tonight, I will be making BBQ chicken tacos.  On deck for the rest of the week I have Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff on Wednesday and Portobella Mushroom Pizzas on Thursday.  We are in a wedding this weekend so Friday will be the rehearsal and Saturday will be the wedding so I will be skipping the challenge.  I may throw something together Sunday though.  

I hope you enjoy my new series as much as I have enjoyed planning it!  Until next time...
