Weekly Recipes: Lemon Honey Chicken with Herb and Butter Noodles

Chicken marinated in a heck of a lot of lime juice, a smashed clove of garlic, grilled, and topped with honey-butter (though I’m certain itContinue reading “Weekly Recipes: Lemon Honey Chicken with Herb and Butter Noodles”
Weekly Recipes: Refried Bean Burritos and Spaghetti
My family knows I absolutely love rice and beans; truly, it’s pretty much my favorite meal (stay tuned for my birthday meal!). My family tolerates this love, and even participates to a certain degree, though with varying degrees of enthusiasm based on person or bean-type. Baked beans are an adult-only delicacy (which I don’t understandContinue reading “Weekly Recipes: Refried Bean Burritos and Spaghetti”
Garden Progress and the Weekly Meal Plan: April 27 – May 3rd
It’s been a rainy Sunday morning, which has created a very welcome lazy mood here at the Homestead.

The Weekly Meal Plan: April 20-26 2020
It’s a cloudy day in central Indiana and it’s making us all want to be lazy and nap. While there is a to-do list (there’s always a to-do list), I’m perfectly alright with us taking some rest and relaxation time. We may get to some garden chores yet this afternoon, or we may not.

Garden Progress: Storms and Bobcats the Second Week of April
I’m up early again. It’s 6:30 am. I’ve been up a little more than an hour. I like the quiet time I can steal away by getting up now.
