What's for Dinner: November 6 - November 12
* image
So...?
How did everyone fare today? Did Daylight Saving throw your family for a loop or was it smooth sailing?
My body betrayed me this morning, and I found myself wide awake at 5:30. I eventually gave up on the idea of going back to sleep.... and I got out of bed to make coffee at 6:30.
I was hoping to spend that "extra hour" in a quiet house, sipping coffee and reading. But no such luck. The kids followed me downstairs and the morning sort of spiraled from there.
I was so frustrated that I couldn't start the day the way I wanted that I had a bit of an emotional breakdown. Thankfully, I was able to recover and had a relatively productive day after that.
To end the day on a high, here's this week's menu plan. If you're curious to see what's on deck for dinner at our house this week, then keep reading!

PPS. With any luck, I'll have my Holiday Gift Guide on the blog by the end of the week. Keep your eyes open for it!
