What’s For Dinner?
Every Sunday, Heather and I discuss the week ahead. We talk through schedules, meetings, appointments, events, and more. Then, the discussion comes up about what we are going to plan for dinner for the week. I am not the cook; I am not eager to dive into a new recipe; I am not creative with food. I am a team-player though and very practical! I know we need to eat dinner, and I know I need to help with making it happen.
Every Sunday, as we dinner plan, I offer up a suggested meal from the grill, a meal from the crock-pot, and at worst, an offer to make breakfast for dinner. See… practical.
Heather loves to plan meals. She loves the act of serving a creative dish for her family, at the table. She is comfortable and passionate about trying new foods, new spices, and new recipes. Whenever Heather is “all-in” I come home to find, southern recipe’s ripped from the magazine and scattered around our kitchen with an open bottle of wine, and great music filling the room. The aroma typically makes your mouth begin to water.
