I'm Back...Sort of.

Hello to everyone...

At this point I think you can guess that I have already had my baby. Norah River Henderson came 1 day after my due date, during all the flooding. She was born Sept 21 @ 11:30 am weighed 7lbs 13 oz and was 19 1/4 in long. We are soooo happy she is here, and are adjusting well to have three crazy women in the house, this not including mommy:)

I really wanted to get back to cooking a little so I will try and do a few random menus during the holiday season and then we will see what happens after the new year. I am going to start out small so I am only offering 2 meals this time around. Stock your freezer for the holidays. Please have your orders in by Sunday at noon...I will have the meals ready for pick up by Wed Nov 4th. Thanks so much.

Meatloaf $16/$9
Chicken Pot Pie $20/$11

AWOL...menu 5.23.09

Hello friends...sorry I have been out of the loop for a couple of weeks. Cooking all those chicken pot pies wore me out, and then life has just gotten more and more busy as the end of the year approaches. At first I was thinking I would say that I had been MIA, but I figured that would mean I fell into a pot while cooking or something.

Here are a couple of pics of my sweet girls. Ice cream snack on the front porch, and a couple from our improvised mini family vacation to Chattanooga. Well, I am back in the swing of things for just a few short weeks, and then we will once again be on summer break/maternity leave for Everything Homemade. Like I said before Naomi was born, I don't have a time or even an answer to whether I will continue cooking. I guess it is more likely since the baby's first months will be as it is getting colder and activity is winding down...but I will have to see how mommy handles three crazy women.

So here is this week's menu...orders in by Tuesday May 26th and pick for Friday May 29th. Have a wonderful holiday weekend! If I cook again it will be the week of June 8th and 9th...please let me know if anyone is interested in getting a few more meals before the start of summer break.

Meatloaf $16/9
Chicken Enchiladas $20/10
Enchilada Bake $19/10

In honor of finding out what the sex of this baby is on Wednesday...I thought I would go back and remember our first days with our sweet baby girls. Oh the suspense...guess you will have to order and pick up a meal on Friday so you can know what we are having:)
I have still been experimenting with new recipes, so there are a couple of newbies on this week too. Please have your orders in by Tuesday 4.28 @ 5pm, and orders will be ready for pick up no later than Friday 5.1 (wow it will already be May!).

The kitty that my girls could not get enough of!!

Sweet baby Olive...my new niece.

Cousins...6 days apart in age.

This was the title of our sermon at Westridge for our Easter services. It was an awesome sermon and captured so much of the hope that we all need to see and accept through Jesus Christ. If you are interested you can check it out here.
I am back from my trip, and I had such an amazing and memorable time...I can't believe how fast the time flew by. Short of missing my husband something terrible, I could have stayed forever. But I am home and real life is back in full swing, Md/Ob appts, fussy children, nap times....and all the fun that comes with pregnancy.
I am going to pick up with the last menu that I cancelled cooking...so if you had an order and would like to keep it for this week, then just respond by Tuesday at 5 pm. If you didn't order and would like to then please do so by the same time on Tuesday April 14th. Meals will be ready for pick up this Friday. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Here is the menu again, in case you didn't catch it a couple of weeks ago.

I am holding off on the chicken cacciatore to try and give it it's own special something for when I put it on the menu.

Menu 03.26.09

Sorry for the confusion with posting the Meal Options the other day. I just want to move my list of ALL my meals to the front of the blog every once in a while so if new people are finding me on the web they will know what I offer...once again, a little unclear, sorry.
Here are a few pics of the girls and I's trip to Florida this past weekend. We had a good time, but Naomi and I came home with colds and have been laid up all week...it was sunny but a bit windy as well. But you can't beat two beautiful girls at the beach!



I have added a couple of new items to my menu this week. I tested them at home and with friends and they got good reports...I just felt like we needed a little something new.

Where Has My Mind Gone?????

My baby turned ONE!!!!!

I promise that all week last week I was reminding myself to send out a menu. I would think about it, and it would be Tuesday, then I would think about it again, and it would be Wednesday....then I just thought of it, and it is SUNDAY!!! Where did my mind go on Thursday and Friday???? I can tell you...to my two children, and the physical symptoms of having another one on the way! But I came to my senses just now, and I should be back on track. I have Jay here to help me and everything should run smoothly. SHOULD. So here are the menu options for this week. Orders in by Tuesday, food ready for pickup on Friday Feb 20th. Thanks again, and have a great week.

Saucy Meatballs $16/9
Chili $14/8
Beef Enchiladas $19/10

Menu 01.29.09

Naomi with the little boy, Will, that I watch during the week...getting used to 3.

Abigail on her trike that is inside since it is too cold outside, hey it works.

So, I am going to try and add pictures every time I post a menu. I am sure you are all dying to see what my adorable children look like this week! Sorry for the delay, we have had a bit of sickness this week in our house, and I thought it best to wait another week before cooking again for the masses. I didn't figure that anyone would really notice, however, I have had a phone call or two and several emails....so my apologies, here is the food.

Orders need to be in by Monday 02.02.09 and food will be ready for pickup on Wednesday 02.04.09. I know this is a fast turnover, but it just occurred to me that we are going to Florida next weekend to see my family and have a little B-day party for Naomi, so we won't be here on Friday afternoon. Of course you can pick up the following week as well, whatever is most convenient for you. Thanks.

For newcomers...the first price is to feed 4-6 people and the second is just a 2 person serving.
Lasagna $20/11
Chicken Lasagna $20/11
Chicken Cordon Bleu $19/10
Layered Enchilada Bake $19/10

Happy New Year...

I am sorry for posting a menu this late in the week, or early however you want to look at it, but we have had a bunch going on in our home lately. Jay and I found out yesterday that we will be having our third child in late September. We are sooooo excited and blessed to have this baby. I have had such an awesome time with God this week, just anticipating the assumed results of a pregnancy test but not knowing for sure. He has grown our love for this child so much even in this short time of knowing about it. Please keep us in your prayers as we move into this new phase of our lives.

If you could please have your orders in by Tuesday 1.13.09 and I will have meals ready for pickup on Friday 1.16.09. I hope you find something you like!
