My Everyday Life Week 45

Here’s what this past week looked like- My Everyday Life Week 45

Cooper was gone this week in Washington on a school trip. We had the house to ourselves. We had a fire every night, lots of tea and watching Physical on Apple TV.

I also spent time researching myself and going through old journals and stuff I’ve made since my Mom died.

Cheesy Potato Stacks

Cheesy Potato Stacks is a fun way to serve potatoes! Find the recipe on Shutterbean.com

Cheesy Potato Stacks made their way onto my breakfast plate the other day.  Who doesn’t want to start the day with stacked potatoes with crispy edges? WHOOOO?!!! 

If you’re having some fancy holiday dinner, I’m pretty sure they’d fit right in there too.

Can you imagine these on a Thanksgiving plate with turkey and a little bit of gravy? I wouldn’t be mad if a little bit of cranberry sauce got onto my fork while tasting.

For now, we just eat them on a weekday morning because they’re that easy to make and I’m going through a weird egg & potato kick right now. Consider yourself warned.

Intentions for the Week- Week 45 in 2022

Hello, my friends. This weekend Cooper had a few baseball tryouts. I also caught up on some work, cleaned out the fridge, and had a nice long zoom call with friends. I also did a ton of laundry because Cooper is going away on a class trip this week and there’s a lot to get done! I haven’t been away from Cooper this long in a LONG TIME!  This week I am going to be better about doing my morning pages. I slacked last week and I didn’t get to really work on my morning routine. 

Anywho…here are my Intentions for the week!
