Thank you for the birthday wishes last week -- I still don't feel a day older than 35. ๐ New on the Blog: --> Simple Summer Charcuterie Board Meals Our current summertime routine is to eat both lunch and dinner outside almost everyday -- the kids love it and I love less mess to clean up! I often plan a slow-cooker meal or something grilled for dinner; and for lunch, we enjoy what our kids call "meat and cheese", but what the more sophisticated Pinterest world calls "a Charcuterie Board" (pronounced shรคr Kลล derฤ). It's such a simple (and fun) meal that works with whatever you have in the house. Plus, if you eat it right from the tray, there are no dishes to wash! See how I prep for these simple meals (and a few new landscaping pictures) in this week's post. From The Archives: >> Simple Steak Marinade << I've been using this beyond-simple steak marinade for years and years... and it's still my favorite! Test it out for your summer grilling and let me know what you think. >> Make More Time to Read with your Kids<< Dave and I enjoy reading and we always thought we'd be the type of parents who read hundreds of books to our children. Then we had kids and realized it was really difficult to get them to sit still and listen, not to mention finding the time to read with them each day. Thankfully, we discovered a genius tip a few years ago that makes daily family reading time possible AND enjoyable! Head to the library, pick up a few books, and see how many of them you can read yet this summer using our tip! >> How to Quickly Slice a Watermelon << It's not officially summer without watermelon... right!?! But if you've never tried slicing it this way, you are missing out. It's so easy to eat (and really fun for the kids!) NOTE: I'm taking next week off from the blog as I'll be spending time with an out-of-town friend, celebrating Dave and my 15-year anniversary, and "partying" for the 4th of July. I'll still show up in your inbox on Tuesday morning though... and I already have a fabulous Favorite Things post to share with you the following week! Have a great week, friends! ~ Andrea |
