This week’s allergen friendly meal plans and updates include Father’s Day celebration, pantry stocking and doctor appointments.
Happy Father’s Day! I am blessed to have great God-fearing men in my life (husband, father, father-in-law, grandfather, brothers, brothers-in-law). I appreciate each one of them. It’s good to be able to celebrate them all today.
Last week my husband returned from a week in Romania. It’s good to have life back to normal now.
I kept things quite simple while he was gone so I could keep up. But that means now I have twice as much to do this week! I have to catch up on everything, restock cupboards and clean.
Unfortunately this week also turns out to be very busy with dentist, doctor, grocery shopping and sports.
We tried rice with my son last week. He’s had a couple rough days behavior-wise. So I think we’ll keep that out for now. Maybe in a week or two we’ll try avocado. We’re actually getting to the end of his allergy list. There are only a few things left that he has to avoid.
My little one has had quite a few rough days in a row now. I’m hoping she gets back on track this week. She and I could both use better sleep.
Yesterday my husband and the big kids went strawberry picking. We’ve already frozen half of them, and I made eleven half pints of pectin-free easy strawberry freezer jam. We still have to freeze a few more.
So far on my kitchen to-do list I’ve got:
- soaked crackers
- soaked graham crackers
- muffins
- sourdough bread
- broth
- Miracle Whip®
- pureed soups (for myself for easy breakfasts)
- freeze strawberries
- breakfast cake
- fruit snacks
- golden grahams (maybe)
Last week I shared recipes for apple pie breakfast parfait and gluten free inside out Oreos®. I’ve got some fun recipes coming this week!
