It's THANKSGIVING WEEK!!!  And, this year, Frog Prince and I are just celebrating Thanksgiving the two of us.  While we will miss seeing our families, it's going to be quite fun to establish our own traditions for our family.  We're looking forward to a few days off of work and school too - in hopes that we can relax and do some fun things as a family.

Last week was a rough one... recovering from our wonderful early holiday travels to the Frozen Tundra, and trying to get lots of work done translated into minimal cooking in our kitchen.

Frog Prince went out for lunch one day with work, and had enough leftover for 2 more Frog Prince-sized meals... so he ate those up.  And, when you already don't feel much like cooking, cooking for one is not motivation enough.

Last week felt kind of reminiscent of my cooking during my early college years... so this week, I hope we'll be back on track. 

We did end up enjoying:

Mom's Homemade Turkey Noodle Soup (from mom!!)



The last of the Whole Wheat Molasses Crinkles




Cheesy Open BBQ Sandwiches 
(using leftover pork from the freezer)



Crustless Apple Pie



Turkey Lasagna



Nut-Free Chex Mix



Now, onto the menu for this week: 

Breakfast
Apple Granola
Dried Fruit (cherries, cranberries, raisins, apples and pineapple)
Yogurt

Lunches

And, because I must... I present two of my new favorite Thanksgiving recipes:
