Happy weekend!!
We had our first really big snowstorm this week since Remy was born….yes that means almost five years with barely any snow. (If you need any evidence for climate change, there it is.) She had so much fun playing in the snow with us and with her pod-mate, but it also meant two days of working from home without childcare, which was giving me flashbacks to March. Not interested in going back to that any time soon.
Just like every other weekend, we have absolutely no plans. We’ll probably go for a walk. I just spent an hour deleting spam emails. Exciting stuff.
On to the meal plan! This is what we’re cooking this week:
- smoky vegan black-eyed pea soup – pass a bowl!!!
- lentil lettuce wraps – for a healthier taco tuesday
- rigatoni with spiced tomato sauce – ultimate comfort food
- brussel sprout kale caesar salad – never has a salad looked so good
- polenta enchilada bake – sign me up!
- chocolate chip almond butter cookies – yes please
Happy eating!
