Dinner Done

Saturday, September 22, 2012~

All the silver containers and baggies are Dinner Done meals.

Do you Dinner Done? If you are a family of 2-3, you should! It's a meal prep place. You assemble entrees, freeze them at home and then they're ready to cook when you need them. It's the best way to break up meal monotony. Since there are only 3 of us, we are able to split the meals. It makes it very affordable. It might be a little on the expensive side if you're not dividing them. Anyway, I always feel relief when I have a freezer full of Dinner Done meals. Bonus, there's even one cooking in the oven right now! Hope the apple-walnut stuffed pork rolls are as good as they look. =)

Thinking Big

Friday, May 4th~

Getting ready for my party tonight! My last party was huge- both in turn out and inventory that I brought. Tonight's going to be a little less grand. And that's a great thing! I mainly just want to roll out my newer designs and get feedback before I add them to my Etsy shop. I'm not saying that I don't hope to make a few sales, but it won't be a failure if I don't.

I'm actually hoping to revamp my whole jewelry shop. Some of the photos are not great and I want to clear out older inventory. I need to do tonight and then make a run down to the boutique and see what R wants me to leave there and then the hard work starts. I think once I have things how I want them online, I'm going to do a giveaway on my blog.

The Day Before...

Friday, April 27th~

Kenny hanging lanterns and parasols for us

What a long day! The morning was productive and just flew by and then I lost my keys and that sent everything into a tizzy. Well, for me internally. For everyone else, things went as scheduled. My babysitting angel, Tarin, took Julian and then I joined up with my Links of Hope gals to work on getting the event set up. We got a lot done and should be in good shape tomorrow for the actual event. I just love the 1920's style and it's going to work so well there. Now to put my costume together...

Food Day

from Saturday, April 6, 2012~

Love having a freezer full of quick meals!

Had a great afternoon at Dinner Done with some friends today. It's the meal prep place that I happen to prefer. The only real drawback to places like this is that it's not cheap. For a family our size, we split the entrees so that makes it much more affordable. Tonight we had one of the entrees I made. It was steak stuffed with sun-dried tomato and spinach and then topped with adobo seasoning and feta cheese. Soooo yummy!

Easter Christian Traditions, continued... Today there aren't many traditions that all Christians do for Easter. It is known as Bright Saturday. A lot of churches do egg hunts, but this has no biblical basis. Often the egg is used to illustrate the 3 in 1 nature of the Trinity. Some more conservative groups oppose the practice as it is rooted in paganism. Some Catholic churches follow the Byzantine Rites for this day.
