Spring In My Village – a photo essay
Hi Friends! Spring seems to have finally hit Michigan and let me just tell you, not a moment too soon in my opinion. I can’t wait to get my hands in the dirt and start planting. There is a big garden going in with 5 different varieties of heirloom tomatoes. Also some purple carrots that I am excited about. School is almost out for the boys and me. I have to admit, the prospect of the last day of school is every bit as exciting as it was when I was younger and a student. I have been busy snapping snap shots on Instagram of all the great changes that are going on with Spring finally settling in.

The 5th of May, or more popularly known as Cinco de Mayo, is the day for celebrating the Mexican Armies’ victory over the invading French Army in the Battle of Puebla. It is popular in the United States as a way to commemorate the battle but also as a day of Mexican Culture and Heritage. This week’s theme centers around these celebrations and is hosted by #SundaySupper’s Jen at Juanita’s Cocina . She has done an awesome job of compiling all the fun recipes and will be hosting tonight’s chat on Twitter at 7pm Est.
Read MoreBroccoli Bacon Salad for #SundaySupper
A few years ago, at my sister-in-law’s baby shower, I sampled the very best salad ever. It was crunchy and sweet. There was a slight tang to the dressing that matched smokey undertones. I did not just have one plate, I went back for seconds. It was awesome. I knew that I had to try and recreate this salad.
Chicken and Veggie Burritos for a quick #WeekdaySupper
It is baseball season and what does that mean? I am crazy baseball mom once again. Both of my boys play baseball on travel leagues this year so baseball season is a bit more crazy than usual. Crazy is good right? It is fun and I have to admit, I enjoy watching them play ball…a lot.
Scones inspired by the Movie Tea With Mussolini #SundaySupper
This week’s theme for #SundaySupper is Movie Inspired Dishes hosted by the ever talented Heather at Girlichef . My family loves movies, from my husband to my sons we have fans from all the movie genres at my house. Did anyone notice that I left myself out of that last sentence? I did, I have to admit… My name is Shannon and I do not watch movies. Isn’t that awful? I have always been a reader and rarely sit down to watch a movie. The boys can pop on a movie and I can read my book and we are all happy. Date night with my husband? I would rather catch a Detroit Tigers Game, but I do sit through the occasional movie for him. With my lack of Movie knowledge, I was worried about this theme. What would I make, did I even know a movie that would inspire my taste buds?
