Well hellooooo friends. Somehow Halloween is done and dusted, the stores are full of Christmas decorations and I’m personally not quite ready for the holiday season! Let me have my cold, rainy November days for a few weeks first, please. I kind of love the bare-treed, gloomy-skied, icy aesthetic of this month. It creates a hyggeligt feeling inside 🙂
Anyways, I’m late, but I’m bringing you that autumn (now just November) meal plan I promised back in September. I had the hardest time deciding which recent eats to share in the meal plan, so there are lots more favorite recipes linked down below, too.

Spring is a temperamental season in Minnesota. Last week it was in the 70s–today we took a walk in the 30s with snow blowing in our faces.

It’s almosttt growing season here and my mouth waters at the thought of fresh, local produce! My kids have been asking for sweet corn (sorry guys–that’s a few months away) and I’d pay a pretty penny for a quart of fresh strawberries at the moment… the white/pink California counterfeits are just not the same.
