I also wanted to give you a little heads up about a great company I’ve recently had contact with and will be hosting a giveaway for at the end of the month. Thirty-One Gifts specializes in darling bags of all shapes and sizes. This month they have a Customer Special going on. For every $31 dollars spent customers will receive 1/2 off one of their cute purses. A great deal, I’d say. Look for more information here. Giveaway coming soon. 🙂

  1. My quick easy go to meal is a vegetable & cheese rotini soup with homemade Vermont Maple Corn Bread (aka: Johnny Cake).

  2. Having our own chickens for eggs, egg salad sandwiches show up often in the summer. Various egg casseroles and quiches do too. Yum.

  3. Go to meal would be pasta with whatever veggies I have in the fridge, no pasta sauce just olive oil and red pepper flakes!

  4. My favorite ( and easiest ) go to dinner recipe would have to be my chili! Just a basic chili recipe with some “extra” ingredients that I always seem to have on hand..seasoning..peppers.. etc!
    add cornbread and a salad for a easy dinner! =)

  5. We love doing taco nights at our house. We make it buffet style, so we set out all of the ingredients and let everyone make tacos to their liking! Thanks for the chance to win!

  6. In our home we have two busy teenage girls who seem to always be going through a growing spurt. My husband makes a large pot of spaghetti sauce at least one a month and freezes it in portion sizes. I keep bags of cooked pasta along with some cooked sausage in the refrigerator at all times. The kids can put together a healthy homemade pasta meal before running off to cheerleading practice or a babysitting job.
