It's a beautiful day today, and we've been planting flowers and trimming bushes. Last week I mentioned we went to my parent's house in West Virginia, and their yard was in full blooming mode since they're south of us.

Easy Turkey Meatloaf
My husband and I really enjoy a good meatloaf, and actually, when I'm making a meatloaf, this is one of the few times I prefer using turkey instead of beef.

Lower Fat Pepperoni Pizza Crescent Roll Ups
My mom has been treating us to wonderful pepperoni pizza crescent roll ups for a while now, and they get devoured faster than you can say "pizza!"
