Last week I posted our menu for the week. It was heavy on slow cooker meals because we are in the crunch time for the end of the school year and all the activities, clubs and classes both of my children are involved in are trying to fit in those last meetings and events. That…

Slow Cooker Chicken Fajitas
It was a crazy and fun weekend. We were in Milwaukee for three days for a Mommy/Daughter Feis, Irish dance competition, trip. No, I don’t dance, I finance, as they say. She did really well. It was the first time in a long time she could come off stage and say, “I did the best…
Kotopoulo Skorthato (Lemon Garlic Chicken) and a Power Outage
I was in a meeting at 5:55 pm when I received a text from home. It is storming out and we have no power. Ugh. There goes all my plans out the window. There were 1,200 people without power in our area. So, when I got home at 7:00 pm I did the best thing…
Steak Pitas with My Menu Plan for the Week
Do you menu plan? I never used to but now I cannot live without it. I plan for about 1 month because we get paid once a month and I do my stock-up shopping then. But, if one week or two weeks may work better for you, give it a try. My menu for the…
Italian Sausage Cowboy Casserole
We spent the weekend in Lansing, Michigan, for the Michigan State Science Olympiad Tournament. My son has participated on his middle school team the last two years. This has been a great thing for him. It was his birthday Friday so we had cake an ice cream in the hotel lobby for him with the…
Shrimp and Pasta with Garlic Butter Sauce
This is our go-to meal when time is tight and I have put off making dinner so long that most of my options are no longer an option because we would be eating dinner at 11:00 pm. Yes, there are nights even I don’t want to cook! I always have a few pounds of frozen…
Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken Sliders

Ranch Slow Cooker Pork Chops with Gravy (No Canned Soups)
I love my slow cooker but I don’t like that many recipes call for canned soups. I don’t like the flavors and they are so icky to me. So, I have a recipe I use instead of any canned soups it is so simple even my daughter, who helped make dinner last night, said, “If…
Baked Turkey Sloppy Joe Egg Rolls
So Feis (Irish dance competition) season has officially started for us. We attended the Dayton Feis in Dayton, Ohio. This was the first time for us attending this Feis. It was in a large airport exposition warehouse which meant there was lots of room and it didn’t feel crowded at all. We didn’t get to…

Chocolate Strawberry Trifle
This is a great dessert that is so easy and light for Spring and Summer. The sunsets lately have been so beautiful. You can feel the weather changing so quickly. I know we are looking forward to fresh fruits and vegetables. The great thing about this is you can use whatever berries that are in…
