It does feel like spring here in the PNW this week. The flowers are blooming, the grass is green, and...the rain is pouring. Our forecast for the next seven days is straight rain. Yes, all day and every day, so I guess you could say in a way it still feels like winter with very visible signs of spring appearing!
I wanted to put a few things out there just so you know where we stand on the blog front right now. Our content has been a little more inconsistent that we'd like. Life has been a little crazy, both personally, and, for Josh, professionally - just a lot going on. Getting the work done that goes into a blog post has been tough, but we've got several in the hopper!
That being said, we've been working on a bran muffin post, I've been making a million smoothie bowls (it seems) to get one ready for the blog, as well as working on content that we've had set aside (ahem Easter). A review post coming, as well as a couple of new DIY posts! I also mentioned that Eden has been cooking for the family at least once a week and her recipes have been so good! I'd love to share a few of those with you because they are really great for kids who are learning or gaining more independence and confidence in the kitchen. Lots of things going on and I'm so excited to share them with you!
Now that we've got some of that housekeeping out of the way, let's move onto the menu - which is delicious this week, by the way!
Monday is Pi Day and Thursday is St. Patrick's Day so let's just go with it - check out both of those Pinterest boards! Make a pie on Monday and make something Irish or green for Thursday.
