Here’s a bit of this, that, & food from our past week!
Everybody say CHEESE!
Where the green grass finally grows
We’ve been spending a lot of time in the backyard lately, which is interesting because our backyard doesn’t get used nearly as much as it should. The grass is looking good though isn’t it?!
Mazen has been enjoying playing Legos at the picnic table, and Birch has discovered the excavator at the neighbors’ house and is OBSESSED. He loves to work – just like his daddy!
Dino Land
Where did all the curls go?!
We’ve also been into soccer lately
Me vs. a 2 year old is a good boost of confidence in contrast to the 22 year old superstars I normally play against 
Firehouse Dollhouse
This firehouse that used to be Mazen’s is getting a great encore!
F O O D!
Breakfasts
I like my pancakes and waffles cut up like a 2-year-old. It’s the lazy way to eat!
Kodiak cakes with pumpkin – so delicious!!!
I love these stone ground English muffins we’ve been getting at Whole Foods!
Lunches
Leftovers from a grill out – smoked chicken, asparagus, rice, and avocado & hot sauce
Kale salad with pita chips, smoked chicken, apple, raisins and avo!
Salmon / rice / massaged kale
The last of Thanksgiving!
Dinners
Catch Sitka Halibut with rice and roasted veg medley. That’s homemade tartar sauce on the side! So good!
Take out from Bang! Gotta support those restaurants through the winter. That coconut rice is amaaaazing!
Blue Apron chicken stir fry! Loved the sauce on this one. Blue Apron is going to be doing a focus on health for 2021, and putting some superfoods recipes on the menu. I can’t wait to share more!
We’ll be decorating for the holidays the weekend!
See you on the other side : )

Glad to hear that about Blue Apron! We stopped recently after being customers for nearly 3 years. We will re-up at some point – but my biggest qualm with them (other than loooong prep times, which they’ve since addressed with some pre-prepped stuff ) is that their dinners aren’t usually super veggie heavy. Would love to see more veggies – maybe even more than one!
Kath Younger says
I have thought they had a good balance of veggies, but I also try to choose meals that are veggie heavy from the list, so maybe that is why. I think the new year boxes are going to be great based on what I’ve heard!

Hi Kath,
Glad to hear that you had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday! Any chance that you will be posting your Black Friday purchases? I had a few of the same items from Athleta on my list and always love to see you model them. I always have a hard time figuring out sizing and have success when I base it off of your review. By the way, love the Athleta jeans that you recommended in the past!!
Kath Younger says
Still love those jeans the most! I didn’t want to buy anything online and have to return and didn’t make it to the store – too busy! I guess I’m saving my gift card for the winter sales : )

We’re big fans of Blue Apron but I’m definitely excited for some changes!
