It feels like fall today in RVA! We've been up since 5:45 am (thank you daylight savings time) and so now we have had an extra hour to get organized to start the week. Lunch box muffins, homemade chicken noodle soup and laundry! are on the agenda today.
Here is a quick recap of our weekend. Friday, we dined at Champps! This is such a kid friendly spot, seems ironic since it is a sport bar, but they have a great kids menu and a happy hour with drink and appetizer specials Monday-Friday.

Leaves are back in full force. We have already gotten them up twice and this is just the start!
Krispy Kreme was hopping this morning. Everyone needed a little sugar jump start after falling back.
Here goes with this week's menu planner...
Soup Sunday - Quick and Easy Chicken Noodle & Grilled Cheeses
Monday - Spicy Chipotle Burgers with French Fries
Tuesday - Cannellini Beans with Roasted Red Peppers & Kale, Crusty Bread
Wednesday - Donna Nash Chicken
Thursday - Light King Ranch Casserole
Oh PS...I am back on the "cure the picky eaters and eat family dinner together" band wagon! I have been watching these short video by Melissa D'Arabian. I have picked up a few tips and we have documented everything that Clyde likes to eat which fits on one page. It is bad....I have to get him eating better. Wish me luck.
