Intentions for the Week

Intentions for the Week- Week 24 in 2021

Happy Monday, friends!

We have made it to week 24 of 2021. Can you believe that? We’re almost halfway done with this year. This weekend we worked in the Snack Shack. We did some stuff around the house and relaxed. I made a few things to clean out the fridge (yay for light meal prep!). School is out for Summer! I have myself a future 7TH GRADER NOW. Can you believe that? Today is our first Monday of Summer break. Let’s take a moment and write down our Intentions for the Week! Here’s what I want to accomplish:

Sunflower update!

Afternoon magic hour.

The best part of volunteering to do Snack Shack- kids! I got to meet a sock puppet named “Sock Puppet.”

You learn so much about a person when you watch them decide what they wanna purchase!

A glimpse of childhood.

Lasagna Cups

I was thinking about how much I wish my grandma was still around while I was filling up these Lasagna Cups in my kitchen the other day. When I graduated from high school (so long ago!), she made hundreds of lasagna roll-ups for my party that were a HUGE hit. As a lover of kitchen shortcuts, it’s kind of a bummer she never got to see wonton wrappers being used for lasagna! They’re so fun to use!

These Lasagna Cups in my friend Ryan’s new cookbook – The No-Fuss Family Cookbook and they’re just one of MANY recipes that captured my attention.

Such a fun/simple way to make lasagna that doesn’t take forever! I love that the portions are easy to work out. If I am in front of a whole pan of lasagna, I turn into Garfield and I’ll never stop eating or cutting “another” bite.

I can imagine they would make great appetizers, would be fun to put in kids’ lunches, and have kids help with making them! I would have adored making these with my grandma as a kid.

Intentions for the Week

Intentions for the Week- Week 23 in 2021

Happy Monday, friends!

We had a pretty busy weekend. My family helped clean up the Snack Shack to get it ready for the championships/ All-Stars. We went to our baseball team party and ran a bunch of errands for the shack. It feels good to see hard work change a space. It also feels great to volunteer time for the community. I know it will help raise money for our baseball programs so YAY! This week is Cooper’s last week of school. We have a bunch of activities and I didn’t get around to doing meal prep this weekend. I’ll have to try to fit in pieces throughout the week until I can back into a rhythm! Anyways, here are my Intentions for the Week!
