I say small announcement but its kinda big for me. For the next two weeks Im going to be a working momma. Eeeeks! My moms bestie works in HR at a hospital and asked if I would help them with a special project.
I was nervous at first.. Ive been home for a year! Then I was worried.. what about the kids?! [They go to Mother’s Day Out MWF from 9:30 to 2:30 so going full time wasnt a big deal.] I went through the whole spectrum of emotions. Im ok with it now [I think.. I hope!] plus we could really use the money.
What does this mean for yall? Well.. I may be slow to respond to comments and emails but know that deep down I love ya and miss you. And at the end of the two weeks well celebrate my becoming a stay at home mommy again with a massive giveaway. Basically, yall get all the good stuff. 😉
Breakfast:
Omelet
Breakfast Za
Turkey Cups (seen above)
Breakfast Sammies
Sausage Gravy
Dinner:
Pulled Pork* (recipe above from Meredith)
French Onion Soup
Stuffed Chicken
Leftovers
It also means no lunch menu for the next two weeks and lots of crockpot recipes! And my goals? To make it to work on time. Ha! Seriously.. I havent had to wake up early in a year! [Ok that may be slightly dramatic.]
Any-Im always late-ways, make sure yall link up your recipes or menus in the comments below! I love to go through them. Side note – would yall like a Menu Monday link party instead of putting it in the comments? I can make that happen.. next week. Ha! Let me know.. and Happy Monday to my working and non working friends!

How exciting and nerve wracking. lol. I'm sure it will be great for you and a nice break with adults. 🙂 I'm drooling looking at your food and recipes. It's 2am here in Hawaii and instead of sleeping now I want to eat! 🙂

That's so exciting but I totally understand all the feelings I am sure you are feeling! Making the extra money always helps though! Good luck with your next two weeks! I am sure you will be great!

Have fun working momma! I know this may seem a little dumb and delayed but did you get a different blog header? Whether it's new or not it's really cute. 🙂

Oh yay! You're going to try the BBQ recipe! I hope you love it! FYI–the sauce is kind of thin (but super flavorful). We used some bottled sauce to put on top of the sandwiches :o)

First, they'll be fine…it's you. You might be a wreck. I was when I was gone 1 day for jury duty last week, but I've also been home for over 4 years. The longer you're home the harder the break is. Second, how on earth did you get them in Mom's day out 3 times a week? That I am jealous of. No one around here does that 🙁 Boo.
Thanks for the recipe 🙂
