MONDAY No school (and no homework!). It looks like a rainy day in Houston, and a cozy baked casserole sounds perfect. Skinnytaste has a zucchini rollatini that sounds delicious. I’ve also made Alexandra Kitchen eggplant involtini many times. To be honest, my kids don’t love this dinner, so I’ll probably make a very simple side…

Weekly Meal Plan // February 10-15
Valentine’s Day is Thursday and I haven’t even dragged my decorations out of the attic yet. I’m all for festive holiday decor, but the effort! The effort, ya,ll! I don’t want to get them down and put them back up. You with me? Or are you a crafty Martha Stewart-type who has had origami hearts…

Weekly Meal Plan // Week of September 30
Here we go! October is upon us, and that means we may dip below 90 degrees in Houston any day now. It also means it’s time for one of my absolute favorite things: Round Top antiquing. I first heard about Round Top circa 1993 from one of my University of Colorado roommates who grew up…
Whole30 Weekly Meal Plan // Week 4
Eleven more days of Whole30, not that I’m counting. I honestly haven’t missed the dairy, sugar, bread or pasta. Delicious Whole30 dinners and egg-based breakfasts have kept me satisfied and full. Not to mention my favorite lunch of chipotle mayo and lime tuna salad heaped inside half an avocado. That said, it hasn’t been a…
