Weekly Meal Plan: Week 17

This simple weekly meal plan features 10 great bloggers with recipes including dinner, sides dishes, drinks and desserts!

Another week, another meal plan. Which is a GOOD thing. I love meal plans, it makes life easier. Making life easier is always a perk for busy families. Simplify your life. It’s a beautiful thing.

Do you know what else is a beautiful thing? Travelling! I just happen to be in Chicago right now. I’m attending Blogher Food for the weekend. It’s a great conference.

I’m having a blast in the windy city. I’m attending sessions to learn more about food blogging. I’ve been blogging for a long time but there’s always new things to learn.

Food blogging is a job that is always changing and morphing into other things. Not only do we need to know how to cook, but we need to wear 20 other hats as well.

We have to be social media experts. We need to know how to take kick ass photos. We need to know S.E.O. inside out. And don’t even get me started on food porn sites.

Luckily I LOVE my job so I love learning more about it. The better I get at my job the more it benefits my readers. Which is ALWAYS my ultimate goal.

So, I’m learning a ton and hanging out with my peeps. We went out for dinner at Frontera Grill the first night. We went shopping the second day plus attended some amazing sessions.

Then I was lucky enough to have drinks with some other bloggers and my blogging idol. So that was pretty epic. Sometimes you just need to surround yourself with uplifting, supportive people.
