Happy Sunday! Are you ready for a delicious week ahead? I know I am! It’s so fun that it’s getting *just a bit* cooler out so we can make SOUP for dinner now. Last week I made some curried red lentil soup that I love [and will have to share the recipe soon. This week, my black bean soup is up for Wednesday. You need to make it this fall–it is so hearty and flavorful! Enjoy, friends!

Happy Sunday! This past week was my first week back at work, and #BabyVolde’s first week at daycare. Thankfully it was a short week [yay Labor Day] so we got to ease into things a little bit. There were times that were hard and times that were good, but we’ve had a fun family weekend together. 🙂 Evenings have been tough though because the babe wants to be held alllll the time so it’s like a flashback to newborn days! I’m going to have to get into weekend meal prep to make dinner happen. If you have any tips, I’m all ears! Since it is 9/11 today I also wanted to mention that… very surreal that it occurred 15 years ago today. Thoughts and prayers to all on this day. Have a great week!

I’ve been dreading this upcoming week… the last full week of my maternity leave. 😦 I really enjoy my job, employer, and coworkers, but can I just say… American family leave policies are the worst!!! I’m thankful I’ve been able to be home with my baby for the first seventeen weeks of his life, but that’s still too short. 😦 This week is a practice run at daycare, with baby boy headed there a few days this week. I start back to work full time the day after Labor Day. We’ll see how it goes! Baby has been watched by his grandparents and at the church nursery and has done great in each situation… so fingers crossed he will do well at daycare too! I’m going to try to fill my alone time this week [what is that?!?] with a mix of fun and productive… make a few freezer meals, clean up a little bit of the messiness that has built up in our house this summer, treat myself to fancy coffee and lunch out… and try not to miss my baby too much. On that note, happy menu planning! Hope these suggestions help!

Welcome to another week of yummy meals! I don’t know about you, but I am loving the cooler weather. It’s not exactly fall quite yet, but we’ve actually had some days not in the 90s in Nashville. It’s been absolutely lovely out! And with that, it’s grilling weather. 🙂 There are a few grilling options on the menu this week–some yummy burgers and my pork chops. Check it out!
