We’ve got a houseful of company coming this weekend, so I’m super excited and working hard to get ready for that! We’ll be going a little easier on the school work this week and a little heavier on the house work.

I was starting to wonder if you ever had sandwiches and chips for lunch! HA! We have that almost every day! I’m cooking sloppy joes for tonight! I’m going to try and bake a pie later this week for my son. He loves cherry pie!

The menu looks great, and I agree…hosting is so much fun when most of the cooking is done beforehand.
Enjoy your weekend!!
