Roses and Recipes

Yep. Totally random. But that’s the way Monday’s often are around here :) First up, the roses. These were so gorgeous; I saw them driving down the road, on the way home from a shoot. Since I already had my camera with me I pulled in and took a few pictures…

And now the recipes. The last few weeks I have been trying to plan my meals for the week. Now, that sounds kinda fancy, but in reality, it is not at all! I simply sit down and come up with a few different things to fix for supper (I feel like the true southerner that I am right now; using ‘fix’ and ‘supper’ in the same sentence!)

I had been just coming up with something to throw together at the last minute, and half the things I would consider making I’d need something from the store. Which often meant more grocery store trips than I needed or wanted to go on. And, in general, more aggravation. So, I declared that I’d only go to the store once a week and I’d plan ahead and make a good list full of all that I needed for that week. And so far, it’s worked out really good. Of course, I think it’s been, like, a month now?! But I love knowing what I am going to prepare and just go in the kitchen and do it. No more running around checking cabinets and freezers and wondering why I didn’t thaw out this or that in time…

Another thing I want to do more is try out the recipes I pin on Pinterest. I LOVE Pinterest, but if I don’t use the recipes, (and other idea’s, tips, tricks, etc.) then what is the point?! So, today I am going to share two of our tried and truly delicious (and fast and easy!) Pinterest Recipes…

#1  Red Lobster Biscuits. Delish! You can find it HERE on Pinterest.

#2 Ranch Chicken. This chicken is so good it has it’s own hashtag on Instagram! Ha! #famouschicken (that is a joke, I am sure #famouschicken is used for other things too) This happened when I posted the recipe on Facebook after I made it the first time. A few people commented saying they had also made it and loved it, and from there friends and family tried it and then posted pictures on Instagram… which made more people see and try it, and well, it’s been quite a hit! You can find that recipe HERE on Pinterest.

What are some of your fav recipes? Pinterest or not…doesn’t matter. I’d love to hear!

Happy Monday ya’ll :)
