Wow! School is over. I think that is still sinking in, probably because Wednesday was the last teacher day and I woke up Thursday with the absolute worst cold ever. Rather than listening to my body I tried to push through it and by the time my husband came home I was like a tired grumpy baby. I ended up taking a two hour nap after dinner, tried to stay awake for a while after that, gave up and went to bed and slept for another 12 hours. Needless to say, Friday I didn't do much. Then, this last weekend was graduation and the marathon of graduation parties, so here I am and it is Monday! The cold is still holding on, but it is not near as bad.
This week is VBS at my parents/inlaws' church. They actually have speakers for adults as well as children late in the evening (after dinner) so we will be going most nights this week. That means I want simple dinners that won't make a huge mess to clean up.
Monday: Slow Cooker Hawaiian BBQ Sandwiches. Last week I actually made this and we ate it plain. Tonight I am shredding the meat and adding some BBQ sauce for sandwiches. Yum!
Tuesday: Hamburgers. I am crossing my fingers on this one. I have never made what I would call, delicious, hamburgers. I'm not sure whether it is because we normally use 90/10 meat or because it is normally the 1/2 off meat ;). I randomly have coconut oil from something else that I made that needed it so I was excited to see that this calls for it. I think I am going to saute some green pepper and onion with it as well. Although then I'll have bad breath for VBS, but onions are oh so yummy, so I think my bench neighbors will just have to deal.
Wednesday: I'm not quite sure what we are going to do this week. If we go to youth, then Taco Time as usual. If we decide to take a week off, then Crockpot Honey Garlic Chicken Thighs.
Thursday: Grilled Cheese (bread/cheese- not gourmet this week)! It's simple and easy and I think, scrumptious!

try using worchestershire sauce in your burgers before you form them. makes a world of difference in the savory department.
