Happy Monday morning to you! 


We are doing a mix of easy and healthy recipes this week. Maddix's birthday is today so to celebrate him turning 2 we are doing dogs and tots, something every little boy loves!


The rest of the week are all new recipes I have decided to try out. Hopefully they will be good recipes that I can add to our routine. I'll let you know how they turn out as I make them :)


And as an FYI, I use an app called "GrocerySmart" when I go shopping. I am able to input my grocery list online and it syncs with my tablet/phone so that when I am at the store I can read my list and 'cross off' the items as I get them. It puts everything in aisle order as well for you which is extremely helpful. Check it out HERE!
