Getting ahead…..

September 22, 2014 by eghassett

Hi Faithful Followers!

I’m getting so into this blog thing that I haven’t really given myself time to do it right.  I always am a step behind in getting my weekly menu posted.  I end up posting it anyway on a daily basis.  But I’ve decided I really want to have a good blog so I’m going to try to make it better this week by getting ahead!  I’m going to get all my recipes and pictures uploaded and ready to go for the whole week. And I will be organizing my website for easier searching.  Then, HOPEFULLY I’ll stay a week ahead from now on.  I’m still such a rookie, trying to learn as I go.  And too impatient to have a perfect site before publishing.  So, you get to see all my mistakes along the way.  I hope you’ll stick with me and someday this will be a great place for you to find great meals!

Have a wonderful week!  See you Monday!

Happy Cooking!

~ Gena

    I think your blog is a-mazing! I wouldn’t beat yourself up for missing a day, a week or even a month! None of us moms can keep up with every meal anyway, so you’re already ahead of the game in my world!! 🙂

    Gena,
    Elsbeth made the Chicken Parmesan last night and we all enjoyed it. I came home from work and put Gabbie to bed and she told me she loved the dinner and I needed to go eat. Keep up the great work!

      Thank you so much for the feedback Dave. That makes my day!! I am trying to keep the recipes simple (for busy moms), with good ingredients and tasty results. So, I love hearing when others like what I’m doing. All feedback is so appreciated! Thanks!!

Hi, I’m Gena!

I love snow, kids and pure maple syrup!

More importantly, I am the happy mom of three, with a busy weekday schedule. I believe in balance, good ingredients and fun! I spend a lot of time planning our weekly menus and want to share my efforts with you!
