After taking the summer off from weekly menus, we’re back! I know for a lot of you, back to school began last week; for us, it begins this week. We spent last week in Sunriver (Central Oregon) for a family vacation, which was so nice, but, alas, not super relaxing because we also have a 14-mo old toddling around and teething. But it was still a really good time, much of it spent outside, with each other.
This week is Ruby’s birthday (and my brother’s birthday), and as our birthday tradition goes, she picks dinner and dessert. She’s requested waffles and a fruit salad with a chocolate pie and whipped cream – so I’m going to make this French Silk Pie from Handle the Heat.
Here’s the rest of the weekly menu for you guys!
