I am having issues with these pictures, so I'm just crossing my fingers that you guys will be able to see them.

I tried to post pictures and if I was successful, they are in the 3 posts preceeding this one.
We just had a huge storm. The worst one this winter. Dale shovelled the walk 3 times and each time it would get covered up again and you couldn't even tell it had been shovelled. We had a lot of wind and so the snow isn't the same depth everywhere, but I think we averaged about 14 inches in 24 hours! I will try to post a few pictures, but we all know my track record with that.
I finally got my new furniture! Yippee! I love it even more than I thought I would. The couch and loveseat are "taupe" and the throw pillows are sage, navy and wine.
I finally feel like my life is getting normal again. I am getting back into my old routines from before the move. I guess it takes me a while to get adjusted. This is the first month I have gotten back to menu planning and I thought I would share some of my meal ideas. I do not make an actual menu with what we are having on a certain day, I just make a list of about 25 meals. We also eat leftovers and go out a few times a month. With my menu in hand, I make my monthly list and purchase the groceries I need to make each meal. I try to stick to meals that call for my staple ingredients so that I'm not buying a lot of extra stuff.
Here's this months list. I made it on the 13th, so it has fewer meals than normal.
MAIN DISHES
red enchiladas
cheesy potato soup
lemon thyme chicken
*gyros- little greek sandwiches with chicken and a yogurt dressing- one of our favorites!
sloppy joes
pizza
mediterranean chicken- chicken, rice and veggies- a lot like arroz con pollo. Yummy.
tacos
fajitas
*curry chicken- a taste from India and our other favorite meal.
burritos
hamburgers
fish and chips
vidella onion chicken
orange chicken
satay chicken-oriental peanut chicken
ham
minestrone
SIDES
home made bread

cottage cheese
potatoes- fried, baked and mashed
Hopefully this list of meals ideas was helpful. I have also been working on quilting my Olympia border quilt and I feel like I'm finally getting things together. It feels great!
