Outfit Highlights of the Week

Jeans day at work during the summer can only have one pairing:  Flowy, breezy blouses.

Themed Family Movie Night and Menu: Peter Rabbit

Movie night is a regular event at our house.  It might come from our love of watching one of our old favorites (and quoting it the whole time), a deep need to just connect as a family, or just because we're too tired as parents to corral kids in public.  There is something so relaxing about cuddling up under mounds of blankets, eating snacks, and laughing (or crying) together during a movie. 

A few week's ago, the kids chose the movie Peter Rabbit.  The boys and I had seen it at the theater during Spring Break while my daughter was in Chicago with her cousins and they couldn't wait for her to see the bunnies dance or McGreggor get thwacked in the face with a garden rake.  

 If I've got enough energy, I usually try to create a menu themed around the movie.  This week's movie menu was easy.  You've got an iconically British story and rabbits stealing veggies from the garden.

Dinner of the Week: Crescent Roll Ring Sandwich

On the first day back to school, I make a kid-favorite dinner.  Something they love that I can easily assemble while I listen to them chatter on and on all about their day.  

Item of the Week: Connoisseurs Jewelry Cleaner

Dinner of the week: Mini Cheeseburger Pies

These bite-sized Cheeseburger Pies are perfectly pop-able for an easy weeknight meal.  Added bonus?  The kids love them and have a blast loading on their favorite toppings.
