Happy Tuesday! I hope this post finds you well!
Last Tuesday, after I grocery shopped and put everything up, I did not feel like cooking. I am sure many of you can relate to this. We’ve been trying to eat a little better, so I also knew I did not want take-out. I remembered I had bought a few things for times like this. See below…..
What do you do when you don’t feel like cooking but also don’t want to eat out? What did you have that was taste recently?

It’s that time of year again! Like last year, I plan to do themed days during Blogtober.
Today is just an intro post, I will start with the below themed days tomorrow.
This is my current plan but may change along the way.
I am also participating in a fundraiser during October if you are interested. Read Everyday In October For the American Cancer Society
I look forward to sharing and interacting with you during Blogtober.

Hey all! I hope you are doing well!
I’m a little shocked that this year is over halfway over! I still have things I want to achieve this year, how about you?
The last week of July got away from me, but I refuse to give up. I know that I can become a better version of myself. I’m making some minor tweaks to last month’s goals and habits, then will carry them over to this month. I will post August’s plan soon.
I’d love to hear from you. What are you working on?

Hi all, last week I eat many tasty things but probably the best was the homemade Chicken Gnocchi soup! I made this Friday for our families bonfire night, and it was a hit. I have included a link to the recipe I loosely follow. What did you eat this week that was Tasty?

Welcome to Tasty Tueday! This week, it was hard to pick a favorite tasty dish because I had a few!
The winner was the Blue Apron dish One-Pot Tomato & Parmesan Risotto with Crispy Prosciutto. I had never cooked Risotto before, and my husband wasn’t sure he had ever eaten it, so this was a first for us both!
What did you have that was tasty this week?

Happy November 1st and day 1 of No Excuse November!
We will continue with Tasty Tuesday during November.
Last week, our most tasty meal was a copycat Zuppa Toscana. Here is a link to the recipe I used with a few tweeks: https://bellyfull.net/zuppa-toscana/.
The tweeks I made are as follows:
I used ground hot italain sausage, kale instead of spinach, added Mrs. Dash Italian seasoning and added crushed red pepper flakes. I served with cheese toast.
This soup is my husbands favorite at the restraunt, and he said my version was actually better. The leftovers were even better.
If you try this reciepe, please let me know and share any tweeks you make!
What did you have this week that was tasty?

Hi All! This week, my husband and I had doctor appointments (annual physicals). Afterward, we usually do Happy Hour at BJ’s Brewhouse because they have great specials and yummy appetizers. This time, we decided to try something new, so we went to Happy Hour at Mother’s (in Westchase, Fl). We decided to order two, not as bad for us apps and one bad for us. So we got their Dry Rub Wings, Buffalo chicken flatbread, and poutine. Everything was delicious! The wings were the second best I’ve had (Glory days are my faves), the Flatbread was the perfect balance of heat and relief, and the potuine was rich and savory (the kind you just need a few bites of). All the perfect bar foods!
Do you have a favorite Happy Hour spot that has food specials, too? What are your favorite bar foods?
Be Peaceful,

Peace, Life & Purple
