My Veggie Chef: We tried a week of this Nashville meal prep service. Everything comes chopped and ready, and dairy-free! My favorite? The bonus Apple Oat Muffins that came with our order. This is my new plan to stock the freezer during extra busy weeks. Local Nashville folks, have you checked out 2616 Boutique?

Hey, friends! What a week! Er, month? I don’t know about you, but I’ve been swamped as my boys finished out the school year.

Alas, I have other obligations, but if you find yourself in so fortunate a position, here are some links to get you started. My brilliant friend Jen eloquently shares How to Talk to Kids About

Summer means I find a little less time to clean the house and a little more time to read novels. Lots of time to watch my boys dress up as Star
