This week, we have family coming to visit for several days. That makes menu planning much more fun! Also, this is the last menu plan I'll post for a couple of weeks because we're going home for the holidays. So, I get to eat my mom's fabulous cooking! I can't wait to get in the kitchen and cook with her. I pray that one day Grace will have the same special memories of cooking with me.

Broccoli is one of my fave veggies, so will definitely try this. I am not very good at knowing what seasonings to use to jazz up veggies, so this will be fun to try.
That sounds delicious, Joanna! We love broccoli here, but usually just eat it with butter. This is something I want to try for sure.
