  • Free Printables to Get Your Pantry Stocked!

    If I’ve learned one thing during the COVID-19 pandemic it’s how important to have basic pantry and household supplies on hand. In my house, and I’m sure I’m not alone, we took it for granted that we could go get what we needed every week…sometimes 2-3 times a week. We were sorely mistaken. We still haven’t been able to find Clorox wipes or Lysol. And that’s just because we ran out. I’m not a hoarder but heck, we like to keep things clean.

    Lol, we were down to 3 rolls of toilet paper when everyone started buying up. It would be funny if not so sad. It took a while to find any but we made do. And canned goods, I usually keep 2 cans of each thing we use on hand. That was great until I went to restock and couldn’t find what I needed.

    Soooo…that leads me to the free printables (download at the end of this post) I created for you and for me! I’m going to tape the Pantry Staples checklist inside the door of my pantry. The weekly meal planner is pretty handy especially with the shopping list that you can write in and cut off.

    I hope you find these handy. I had fun making them and look forward to using them.

  • The Most Amazing Christmas Dinner & Free Menu Planner

    Can y’all believe it’s just 15 days until Christmas?! I barely can myself, where’d the year go? Whether you’re staying in for a quiet family dinner or going to a friend’s or relative’s home for the holiday meal you know someone’s gonna be planning the meal and festivities. And possibly asking you to bring something as well lol.

    When I was growing up my mom, dad, and I usually went to my grandmother’s house. There would be a huge spread with enough food to feed an army. It was usually turkey, ham, slaw, potato salad, green beans, macaroni and cheese, sweet potatoes in some form, cranberry sauce, some kind of jello dish, a ‘relish’ tray of pickles and such, mashed potatoes (my grandmother’s were the best), good ole southern cornbread dressing, giblet gravy, rolls, and oh-so-much-more.

    Oh, and don’t forget the desserts!!! There would be anywhere from 8-20 or so of us depending on who could make it and nobody went away hungry.

    Over the last few years and the passing of so many loved ones, along with my grandmother aging the tradition here has changed. My little family of my husband, daughter, myself, and our many critters stay home and have a scaled back menu but there’s still plenty of food.

    I usually make either a small picnic ham in the crockpot or a turkey breast in the crockpot. Along with southern cornbread dressing, green beans, corn, mashed potatoes, and rolls. Check below for a free 2019 Christmas Menu Planner & Shopping List.

    Heck, sometimes we just make homemade pizzas, ok, I use a pizza crust mix and bottled sauce, but still lol it’s a nice family meal.

    Whatever your traditions, whatever the meal, just enjoy the time with your family and friends this holiday season.
