What's cooking ~

• grilled chicken sausage, zoodles with marinara
• grilled chicken breasts, veggie tots, sweet kale salad 
• beef wellington, roasted potatoes, roasted asparagus and green beans

Miscellaneous stuff keeping me busy but not worth a separate post ~

• read 'You've Been Volunteered' by Laurie Gelman, follow up book to 'Class Mom' - funny, quick light read that I enjoyed ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
• I didn't check the garden for a few days and discovered that the beans have completely taken over - they are using the tomatoes for support and therefore the tomatoes are being smothered and pulled over! Yikes. So I spent hours (that's what I get for not paying more attention) untangling bean vines from the tomato plants so they can get some air and sun. Ugh. Sarge was very helpful eating any tomatoes and beans that fell hahahah.
• Dave's birthday was yesterday - made him a 4 layer coconut cake (thanks to Christa for the worlds best top-secret recipe!), he was thrilled. Also made beef wellington and roasted potatoes, I'll share that recipe this week. 

Hope you had a great week - check back to see lots more recipes, crafts, projects, and whatever else I can think of to make at MMDC!

Sincerely ~
