School is starting! Yikes!!! How did that happen so fast? Seriously doesn’t it seem like we were just starting summer vacation? Ugh! Well…with school starting it’s time to get back into our dinner time routines. I know your family budget has been stretched to the limit getting those “little’s” ready for another exciting school year. Fear not…I’m the queen of budget meals and scouring the cupboards for one last meal before payday! One of my favorite dishes is this Classic Tuna Noodle Casserole I created years ago when things were a little tight…like my jeans! (How did they shrink that bad?! lol) This is 100% pure comfort food and a regular at this Nest during the “kid” years!

Sometimes… lol

It’s time to officially break out the grill folks! I sent Mother Nature an e-mail explaining she needs to keep her cold and snowy attitude to herself! It’s time to allow Spring and Summer their turn on the playground! Winter is in the “Time-Out” chair until further notice! It’s not her fault…I heard she is struggling with menopause and the hot flashes are killing her. I told her “Girrrrl…we all gotta deal!” So, it’s time for all the wonderful outdoor grilling recipes you and I both love. I’m starting out with this simple, yet amazingly flavorful succulent grilled shrimp dish. Come Join Me!
