Spring Break (and thank goodness it is done)

I think the kids have only had about sixteen days of school this month. Spring break started on the 17th, and thank goodness, the kiddos went back to school today…

I know it sounds rotten, but Spring Break really took it out of me. We spent most of the time either at the store, in the kitchen, but we did get one day away. I was completely exhausted by the weekend, and the kids were pretty darn grouchy too.

Today I went to a few stores to restock the house, and I did a little cleaning. The house is still a huge mess, but I’ll get to it soon enough.

This evening the kids are a little grouchy too. I think that calls for early bedtimes for everyone.

February’s Veggie Meals

Holy moly March is almost done, and I’m just getting around to posting this. I’ve stuck with my plan for going two-thirds vegan for another month. So far it has been a pretty easy goal to meet.

I’ve been trying out a lot of new dishes. Here are a few of the tasty vegan and vegetarian meals from my kitchen.

Potato Hash (vegan)

 

Quinoa and Sauteed Veggies (vegan)

Ramen with Veggies (vegan)

Applesauce with Rice (vegan, sick day)

Edamame and Sushi (vegan)

Taco Salad from Taco Bell made with Refried Beans (vegetarian)

BBQ Quinoa, Corn Salad, Mashed Potatoes, and Dinner Rolls (vegetarian)

Veggie Fajitas and Homemade Refried Beans (vegan)

Salad with Avocados (vegan)

I’ve really enjoyed all of the fresh meals, and I swear I could eat avocados with every meal.
