May's Recipes

Alright, here are May's Recipes!! I hope you all enjoy, feel free to email or comment with any questions.

I decided to not do a shopping list, it got to complicated. My shopping list would never work for anyone else because I cook for 4, you may be cooking for a lot more or a lot less, which makes a difference. Also I have a lot of the ingredients already in my pantry and you may not. So, sorry but you will have to make your own list. Enjoy the dinners!

Also don't forget to check back during the month for super yummy dessert postings!

May's Menu

Here it is! May's Menu. Feel free to download it and print it, hang it up and look at if often :) Shortly I will be posting all of the recipes to go along with it and also a shopping list. Hope you're ready for a well organzied, strees free, dinner time! Enjoy!

What it's all about

So, I started this blog because so many times I felt unprepared for dinner. Like I was quickly looking through my cupboard to find anything to throw together before my husband came home. A while ago I started doing week-to-week menus but after a friend of mine found out I was doing an entire month, she asked for a copy. So here it is... a copy of what my family will be eating for the next month! Now, don't think that I'm some super mom who always has a perfect dinner ready every single night. Life happens, and things do get switched around on my calendar. Also, you will notice that there are only 5 days of meals; yes that means 5 days of cooking, 1 night of leftovers, and a fabulous date night for my hubby and me. Hope you enjoy and please feel free to send me any suggestions or comments!

One more thing, I will always tell you where I find my recipes. You will start to notice that most, almost ALL, my recipes come from Melanie. Her blog is amazing and she is amazing! She has inspired me to cook in ways that I never imagined. Her recipes are wonderful and I use at least one a day, if not more! At anytime if you would like to switch something or are looking for a great recipe or ideas, check out her website: melskitchencafe.com

A peak at May's Menu

Until then, check out this cute cookie bar my sister helped me do for a shower.

(sorry for the bad picture, I took it after the shower had started so many of the cookies are already gone)

We made 7 different kinds of cookies (3 dozen of each). Double chocolate chunk, M&M Chocolate, Peanut Butter, Buttermilk Lemon, Chocolate Chip, Oatmeal Raisin, & Sugar Gems! It was a major hit and everyone loved snacking on them while chatting!
