Meal Plan Monday

OK…this week’s meal plan is a little bit different…we could call it a Pork-a-Palozza. Why a Pork-a-Palozza…because I made a quick stop into Costco on Friday. It’s Meal Plan Monday! I was in Halifax for a fantastic meeting with East Coast Mom Bloggers and had just enough time to zip into Costco before I hit …

Meal Plan Monday

We’re a hockey family. My son plays in the Nova Scotia Junior Hockey league, and we are currently in the first round of playoffs. Playoffs have us traveling in the middle of the week for a game, or playing a home game at 8:00pm on a Sunday night, like we did last night. These weeks …

Meal Plan Monday

It’s a holiday today here in Nova Scotia, Heritage Day, and this is only the second year we have had this day recognized. While many provinces celebrate Family Day, we now observe Heritage Day on the third Monday of February. I have to say I think I can get used to a planned long weekend …

Meal Plan Monday- Fresh Cuts Market

Fresh Cuts Market in Bridgewater opened their doors just about three weeks ago and I can already see this will become a regular stop in my week. There was a lot of excitement to see what this new Market was going to look like, what they would sell, and of course, what would the prices …

Meal Plan Monday

Super Bowl Sunday is over. By all accounts it was a historical game. I am not much of a football watcher, but certainly appreciate the thrill of a come back win. I spent last night watching one of my favourites, “Crazy, Stupid Love” with my daughter. I love that movie. So funny, and realistic when …

Some weekends are crazier than the week they follow. I just finished two full days of running to events, writing blog posts, social media shares, hockey games and an all day conference an hour from where I live…on very little sleep. Oh boy…am I ready for a new week! 😉 Welcome to Meal Plan Monday! …

Meal Plan Monday

Not all week’s go according to plan. Nor do weekends. So this weekend when my daughter who was home for the night from college, mentioned very casually Sunday afternoon that she needed a few groceries AND might also need a drive back to school and her apartment…about an hour fifteen away…my plans for the day …

Meal Plan Monday

Good news! We’ve reached the half way point of January! Wasn’t it just New Year’s Eve? Although I have to admit when people ask me how my Christmas was, I have to really stretch, and then I hesitantly answer “Good…?” Time is the hardest concept to comprehend. I’m still in that “New Year” mentality and …

Meal Plan Monday

It’s Monday! How is everyone doing? Still eating Ferrero Rocher’s for breakfast and butter tarts for lunch? There are still a few treats here I am working on…I mean THE FAMILY…is eating, but otherwise we are getting back on track and a weeks worth of planned meals is certainly helping. Welcome to Meal Plan Monday. …

Meal Plan Monday

*This will be my last Meal Plan Monday post until after the Holidays. This regular feature will resume in early January. Our weather here in Nova Scotia took a wintry turn this weekend with cold temperatures and a dusting of snow, and now today there is a snow fall warning with more to come later …
