Meals for the week

Being home for the summer my Mom and I have a routine down when it comes to dinner. She cooks one week I cook the next week. When she cooks she really just asks my Dad what he wants, and I thought I can make some of the stuff that I pinned on Pintrest. Perfect opportunity right! Here are the meals that I made this week.

Monday:

This was ok. I really like the combo of the potatoes and the sausage. Next time I'm going to add more sausage. I'm also thinking of adding some sort of soft cheese to create a sauce. It was also better as left overs. It was really easy to make which I loved!!

Tuesday:

This was a big hit!! Now this makes a lot of meat so what I did was put the meat on a salad like a taco salad the next day. I also made a simple pico de gallo to go on top.

Thursday:

This was a really great side dish!! It was so good!! It was really easy too! I can't wait to make it again. This was a good Pintrest find!

Friday:

This was also a great find! I really liked that it was all in one pan. The only think that was a little confusing was when to take it off the heat, but it didn't really matter a whole lot because all the liquid evaporated eventually.

Well that was dinner from last week. I'm going to look at my Pintrest page right now and figure out what I'm making next week.

29

Well I turned 29 yesterday, and I have been thinking a lot about the last 8 years of my 20's. Like most people I set goals. Goals are good, but they are even better when they are accomplished. I've been thinking about the goals that I set when I turned 20 and well have been setting all through out my 20's. I've met some of those goals. I have a college degree and a job, which is awesome. I have experienced a lot of other things through out my 20's such as serving a mission working at Disney world. I have even lived in five different states. What about those goals that I haven't accomplished yet? With one year left in my 20's is it too late to accomplish the rest of my 20's goals? I guess I have a year to figure it out. So here is to being 29 the last year of my 20's!
