And then came four

Anyways we have four kids and I decided to kick the dust off this and finally get started. Well it has been an eventful last few months with the birth of Amelia a good deal of travel for Seth and the kids getting back in school. I have been slaing over a hot stove as little as possible and more over a hot grill. I've found both Cissy and Julian love grilled summer squash and pesto. So on the weekends I've been making a huge batch and having them for lunch through out the week. Tonight they were on some parbaked pizza crusts I had int the freezer along with some grilled eggplant, olive oil and cheeses( feta, mozzarella, parmigiana). Delicious! We also add them to pasta hot or cold, on top of salad or just reheated.
I had been having a problem with a sweet tooth but it seems to have waned temporarily. Dinner tomorrow night????

So Today I begin I have been thinking about doing this for a while and finally did. What I would like to do on here is post my weekly menu and some of the recipes. As well as cooking, entertaining, shopping and thrifty tips I have or that are relevant to my daily post. I am a mom of three young( under four) children, I cook every day at least one meal as well as do all of our baking. I try to get good deals on high quality products and make healthy and delicious food. I love the challenge of doing this and trying to introduce my kids to new and interesting food that they would otherwise not eat. In our house we eat together. Well I hope to get started over the next couple of days as long as Gustav isn't too close!
