It’s been a long while since I’ve written a Friday post, but I’m feeling inclined this morning to get a head start on the weekend. We don’t have big plans – just a little babysitting of our niece, Miss Morgan, tomorrow (yay!) and then catching up on life, otherwise known as groceries, laundry, fall garden […] Read more…
I was totally craving a really good turkey burger today, so I made sure I had the ingredients and made Buffalo-Blue Cheese Turkey Burgers tonight. Teacher Man wasn’t home from school yet (he had parent open house tonight) and Joe was completely starving at 4:45 p.m. (so weird for an 11-year-old boy to be that […] Read more…
