Hi everyone! Happy long weekend to you. I took advantage of the chilly weather and decorated the house a little bit for fall. I still have to go through my closet and switch out my clothes for the new season. Maybe I’ll get some time to do that today. Exciting right? Haha. I’m also re-watching the last season of Gilmore Girls in preparation for the new shows coming out in November. Squeal, I can hardly wait!
How about you guys, how are you spending your extra day off?
As I was going through my Facebook feed yesterday I found a great roundup post over at NewLeaf Wellness of 12 Healthy Crockpot Freezer Meals to Make in September.
I added two of the recipes to my menu plan this week so I thought I’d share it with you too in case you need some dinner ideas. The post includes free printable recipes and a full grocery list. I love using my slow cooker!
My Weekly Menu Plan:
Monday: BLT Quesadillas (bacon lettuce wraps for me)
Tuesday: Slow Cooker Spaghetti Squash and Meatballs
Wednesday: Slow Cooker Honey Garlic Chicken and Veggies (using coconut aminos instead of soy sauce)
Thursday: Leftover buffet
Friday: Pizza Party Friday Night! and for me Honey Mustard Salmon
Saturday: Paleo Steak Salad with Creamy Garlic Vinaigrette
Sunday: Church potluck ~ All Meat Veggie Chili
Have a wonderful week everyone!!

We’re going to a family potluck for our day off. I’d like to decorate for fall. Maybe later this week when the kids are in school!

Sadly no day off in Ireland and the weather has turned from very Autumn like to Mid summer in one day – it is Boiling !! So I am glad I picked Fajitas tonight 🙂
Laura Wittmann says
Fajitas is such a great quick and easy meal!

Amazingly, we’re expecting highs in the mid- to upper-80s all of this week, so I can’t bring myself to unpack the fall clothes, yet. School starts tomorrow, though, so it definitely feels like summer is over…
Laura Wittmann says
Oh wow, it’s so chilly here already.
