Nothing beats easy meal plan ideas, especially after the holidays when you’re worn out.
This one is chock full of recipes perfect for the week after Christmas. We’ve lined up some fabulous recipes just for you!
Hope you had an amazing Christmas this year. Crossing fingers Santa treated you well. My guess is all my readers were on the nice list. I’m not sure I was lucky enough to get on the nice list. I may have been a bit naughty. It happens on occasion.
Honestly, we had a fun Christmas Day. The whole family opened gifts in the morning. Then we had a huge brunch.
We goofed off in the afternoon, then gave all the pets their gifts. That was hilarious.
Then, we had a big Christmas dinner with family. It was beyond amazing!
Tomorrow my son’s girlfriend rolls into town. It’s our first time meeting her so it should be fun.
My son has already been here for over a week. His girlfriend could only fly in for 4 days. We’ll make it work, it’s better than nothing.
She works in retail while she goes to school so she had to be available to work boxing day.
I’m really looking forward to meeting her. I’m also looking forward to some down time.
We’ve been working so much prior to Christmas that we’re all beyond exhausted and ready for a break. I’m super excited to get a sleep in day soon.
Hope you get some rest too. Christmas will take it out of you.

These posts where you just talk about life and then link to delicious stuff are fun to read. 😀 I hope the meeting went well and that your son’s girlfriend had a nice visit! And Boxing Day sales are a thing? Ugh. Why can’t the stores just let us be?!
