Week of September 11: Back in the Routine
It's been a crazy few weeks with renovations, back to school, end-of-summer trips, but we're finally settling into the routine!
We’re all back in school now, right? The adorable front porch back-to-school pictures have been in my social media feed for a while now, but they seem to be slowing down. We’ve had back-to-school nights, first homework assignments(!), and we’ve all gotten sick, so it feels official now!
On top of returning to school, these last few weeks have been INSANE. We’ve started some home renovations, took an end-of-summer trip, had a birthday, and we’ve all been sick (yay, back to school!). I’m craving routine. This week, I’m going back to basics.
We have practice, scouts, or lessons every day, so all of my recipes can be prepped ahead. See each recipe’s notes.
