Random Thoughts & Pictures from the River (Me + 3 dogs + 2 kids)

Seriously, August?!?!  How in the heck did August happen?  Sheesh!  TIME!!!  SLOW DOWN!

I feel like we are just getting into the groove of summer!  We have family coming into town next week!  Were looking very forward to it!

Anyhow, here is what is on our menu plan this week!

Chicken Salads
A Protein (fish or chicken), Cauliflower Mash & Veggies
Parent's House
Out!!!  --family day away from home (-:
BYO Taco Bar (we postponed our play date to next week so this will be this week now :-)

STUFFED NIGHT!

So I am sitting here working on the menu plan and thinking... what do I do with these mushrooms, squash and peppers?  It dawned on me... a stuffed night!  I am stuffing each with our favorite!  Anyhow, I am majorly excited about this!  hehe  Should be FUN!!

Hope you all have a fantastic week!  <3

Our Menu Plan 7.11.12-7.17.12

I feel like I haven't cooked in weeks! Of course I have been but it just hasn't been normal! The warm summer months surely change up the "norm"

Plus we don't have AC so heating up the house sounds dreadful most days. With that said we mostly have grill meals next week!

-Chicken packets
-BBQ Steak & Chicken, Zucchini & Chard (I'll do a recipe video... This is the one I talked about in my June favorites video!)
-Chicken Salads
-Turkey Meatloaf & Veggies
-Pizza in the BBQ & Salad
-Night out with friends!!
-Dinner at my Parent's house

Should I come back here????

Hey guys!!

So I discovered this awesome new ap on my phone for easy blogging!

Would you be interested in me posting my meal plan once again?  (-:    [if anyone is still out there ;-]

10/27- 11/2 Meal Plan, Semi Drake Update, Diet Change!

I have been dairy free now for a whole week... the results are less than exciting.  I know I may be premature to judge but with Deacon I noticed MAJOR improvements after day two.  


I cannot handle seeing my son in gas pain hell because of something that I ate... it's breaking my heart and well, I am exhausted!


I know that this all just may be him but the chances of it being something that I am eating are well... better (based off of the diaper evidence).  So after practically no sleep last night (again) I have decided to go extreme with my diet... almost caveman/Paleo  style but with some modifications so that I am not starving- I still need enough calories to feed us both!


So here is our meal plan for the next week.  The only allergy item that I am not yet cutting out are eggs.  If in a week he is still miserable then see ya later eggs!  


I feel like I sound crazy but if I don't try this I will never know.  Talk about eating HEALTHY!  lol


All homemade, of course, and absolutely nothing processed in any way /-;

• Veggie Soup
• Fish, Veggies & Rice
• Large Salads w/ Egg & Chicken
• Roasted Chicken & Veggies
• Chicken Fried Rice
• Chicken & Rice Soup
• Dinner with my parents

So we shall see... this way I don't have to try just tomatoes, peanut butter, soy, dairy, etc. etc. etc.  I can just nail it all out and in a while bring things back one by one if when we are ready.


I'll keep ya posted!
