We’re in to double digits into the countdown for the upcoming wedding this summer!  My son’s soon to be mother-in-law, sent out the invitations this week!  Yikes, it’s becoming more and more real to this mama’s heart!  I couldn’t wish for a more wonderful family that my son is marrying in to, though, it’s just that he will be the first one to leave our “nest,” and I’m getting more sentimental by the day…
I imagine our grocery shopping and dinner times will look a bit different after he’s married and moved out!  He’s always so appreciative of what I cook, and I will miss that too.
Even with wedding plans, meal times and dinner planning must go on, and so here’s a new week’s delicious dinner ideas.  I’ve been trying to incorporate some of the older recipes on my blog, that are wonderful, even though my photography wasn’t that wonderful way back when…
