Tonght's Menu: Borscht

So...I am admittedly a self-proclaimed beet hater! Tonight I stepped out of my comfort zone and attempted to try the dreaded beet again and made borscht (for those who don't know; cold beet soup). In a word GREAT...even the kids loved it. Made it from a recipe from Barefoot Contessa's cookbook...Summer Borscht.

First Day of Senior Year

Sarah's first day of school today, I don't know why I'm so happy but I am. I'm sure it was quite a shock to her system to get up and ready to go so early but it builds character. I told her it was a good thing starting back to school it gave her a purpose in life! LOL

PS. Logan cried when she left or maybe it was because I was outside, who knows! LOL

Choo-Choo Johnnies

Mom and I took the kids to a train themed restuarant called Choo-Choo Johnnies in Frankfort for lunch today. It was sssooo hilarious to watch Logan point out all the "choo-choos". We all had a great time.

Logan, is he a Cub fan or a Cheesehead???

Chef Rylie???

Today as I was making dinner Rylie said to me "help you", so I let her stir to spaghetti sauce and ricotta cheese together for our baked pasta. Future Chef???
