Spent a long day of driving home from Michigan today. I’m so wiped out. Maybe it’s my age getting the best of me. Sweet dreams, friends.

I like to eat, and I like to cook. Why not bring others along on my journey?
Birthday feast
To celebrate my 50th birthday, we had a feast at my brother’s place. Great food, great company and a little less than great weather. Oh well, you can’t have everything. Thanks for everyone who made it special! E7/P3/M8/W201.4/S5951/WS72147/5/10
Last Pizza of my 40s
Made it to Muskegon and my mom treated us to pizza. I finished my last day of my 40s by hitting my step goal. I hit 12,995 for the day even with my drive. Overall 30/30, and in the last 30 days of my 40s, I logged 321,372 steps! E5/P2/M6/W201.r/S12995/WS77008/10/10
Quick Cooker Oktoberfest
I finally had a chance to make my family the Quick Cooker One-Pot Oktoberfest dinner. I had everything on hand except the BEER! Who would’ve imagined. After a quick trip being chauffeured to the liquor store by my driver-in-training, it was game on! I very much enjoyed the meal, but not everyone was a fan after hearing about how Sausage was made in school. Oh well, more for me!
Broccoli Bake
For dinner tonight, we had a Broccoli Chicken Pasta Bake.
Quick Chicken & Brussels Sprouts
We had planned on having our Bacon-Wrapped Chicken Thighs until we realized we forgot to thaw the chicken. Thankfully, our Quick Cooker was there to jump into action. It went from a solid block of ice to ready to eat in 15 minutes. We paired it with Balsamic Roasted Brussels Sprouts for a great meal made at home.
Spaghetti Surprise!
When I arrived home from work, Jennifer and Sophie were already in the midst of making Spaghetti for dinner. It was a nice surprise.
Chicken Dinner
Tonight we had a Fried Chicken Dinner just like my mom used to give us when I was growing up. It was complete with Mashed Potatoes & Gravy, Coleslaw and a Biscuit.
Ham & Mashed Potatoes
For dinner, we made Ham & Mashed Potatoes in our Quick Cooker and Diced Squash in the microwave. Sophie loves Quick Cooker Mashed Potatoes!
Cheesy Mac
Morgan made her classic Macaroni & Cheese for dinner tonight. Nothing wrong with a little comfort food to end the workweek, right?
