Happy Monday, friends!

We are on the 11th week of 2019. Let’s get into it. I just typed 2018. I really thought I would be over that by now!  This weekend I had time with friends, we had my brother in law spend the night and my family came over for dinner last night. The weekend blew by so fast, I’m wishing for one more day. We were supposed to be away for baseball but the weather got in the way, so it was nice to have so many impromptu adventures in the weekend.  Plus, having company over made us clean the house at warped speed together and for that I am grateful!

Oh! And while I have your attention, here’s a quick reminder that I’m teaching a food photography/food styling workshop in Santa Fe in May! There are a couple of spots left if you’re interested!   Check out more info here.

Happy Monday, friends!

We are the 10th week of 2019. It’s the first full week of March too. Wahoo!  The light is changing in the mornings out here in California. Are you feeling it where you are too?  Friendly reminder that we’re going to lose an hour with daylight savings this weekend. Spring is on its way around here!   I’m looking forward to March although Mercury will be in retrograde for most of it so it should be a wildly (annoying) time!  I mean it is, if you believe in that sort of thing. Which I do….

Over the weekend we had basketball and we did a bunch of work. We got to see my Dad and I was able to do some meal prep for the week!

I cleaned out the fridge like I always do on Sundays and this is what I came up with:

This week’s Meal Prep Includes:

• kombucha (mango!)
• chicken stock
• ginger brew
• croutons
• potatoes
• toasted walnuts
• washed lettuce
• cut pineapple
• spaghetti
• pita chips (made them with everything bagel seasoning)
• potato salad
• tuna salad
• cut up peppers
• celery
• mom’s green salad vinaigrette
• roasted delicata squash
• coffee cake

I hadn’t meal prepped in two weeks and it was really throwing everything off. I’m glad we’re entering the week with some good food options. This should get us through a few meals.

If you need some dinner ideas, here are some

Dinner Ideas for your week:
