When I find myself

with an excess of lemons, I do what any good person does. I make lemonade. Lemons are one of those things that I always have in the fridge. I'm not a fan of the bottled lemon juice, preferring the fresh stuff so we always have a bag on hand.

Another thing I always have on hand is a frozen bag of spinach. Which is especially handy when you decide it's time for a breakfast casserole. Breakfast casseroles are great because they feed a ton of people and are easy to put together. This one is not Thatboy's favorite because it has loads of spinach in it, which he doesn't love. But he admits that he should eat more dark green leafy vegetables.

I apologize for the long lag in posts. It's already Wednesday - this week has flown by. But I have so much to update you on! Because of that, I'll be postdating my posts so you'll have something to read while I'm out of town. But fear not, when I return I'll remain in town for a good couple of months! Some things to look forward to upon my return:

• My first stocking! One of the women on my cooking board asked for help with a stocking for her son's first Christmas, so I jumped right in and knit one for her. I don't want to spoil the surprise by posting it yet, so once I get word she's received it I'll share it with you. As Thatmom said "It's the most extensive thing [I've] ever made!" A big jump from my usual holiday scarves (like the one I'm still working on for Thatboy).
• My first Thanksgiving! I spent all night Monday prepping - making cranberry relish, sweet potatoes, and brining a turkey. I never get to make Thanksgiving since it's my mom's favorite holiday so making all this stuff is super exciting for me!!!!
• Loads of holiday sweets and treats!
