Oh yum! I have a great line up of dinner recipes on the menu this week. I have a solid love/hate relationship with cooking! I love to plan menus and I love to cook and I certainly LOVE to eat but I really hate to clean up after myself and dinner! So years ago Bobby and I struck a really sweet deal. I cook and he cleans up! It’s a win/win! How about you? What do you love and not love about cooking dinner?
Today on DECORATING TIPS AND TRICKS we are talking about LAMPSHADES! Actually, Lampshades 101! There is so much to choose the right lampshade. Listen in below…
Here’s what’s on the menu this week…

SWEET TREAT OF THE WEEK…
Although I don’t have much of a sweet tooth I do love chocolate. I’m making this for family dinner night! YUM!
Have a scrumptious week!
What a great menu you planned! Looking forward to trying the taco casserole and the salmon! Yum!! Thank you for the plan!
P.s. I read yesterday’s post & I will never use OMG ever again ! See in my head I am saying Oh My Gosh! I would never want to take the Lord’s name in vane consciously! Thank you!
Good for you Karen!
Another week of yummy recipes! Thank you! I can’t wait to try the Bacon Bourbon Barbecue Chicken!!!
There are such yummy foods on the menu this week. I wish there were restaurants that served these kinds of foods and real mashed potatoes made with a splash of milk and a tablespoon of butter for a mixing bowl of potatoes. I think I’m missing my moms cooking this week.
I’ve made chicken Marsala once and I think you may have shared a recipe long ago? But this week it makes me want to try again! The pasta salad in jars looked so refreshing too. I never thought to mix all kinds of pasta and use Greek salad dressing. The cake looks very scrumptious too!!
Happy week!
Another inspiring menu. I have a book that I have made with my favorite Stone Gable recipes so thank you!
I quite like cooking and the eating part I love! When the family were young and I seemed to spend my life over a hot stove I used to get so frustrated and longed to go out for lots of meals which of course I couldn’t do. Now I am an empty nester andcan please myself I find I can get bored with eating out so I enjoy home cooked meals full of fresh ingredients………..and trying out the Stone Gable collections!
I’ve always loved cooking because my mother was such a good cook. While I was raising kids I cooked all the time, but now that it’s just my husband and me, I cook sometimes and we also eat out and grill. I mostly make soup and things like chicken cacciatore. I also like to try new things when I have the energy to do so. I think cooking is such a great way to control what we eat, and it is so important for getting the family together for some good sharing time.
I just love your menu plans it helps me with my own .Great recipes! Please don’t ever stop.
