Weekly Menu Plan #45 Commence Comfort Foods!

Autumn salad: arugula, figs, avo, tomatoes, olives, feta, sunny seeds with bleu cheese dressing
We are entering a rough couple weeks here at the Riddle homestead.  Jeremy leaves for a two-week trip to South Africa.  As excited I am to hear all that happens while he's there, my heart aches and a lump swells in my throat when I think about the kids and I being without him for that long.  It never gets easy.  It's at times like these where I am so incredibly thankful to have a community who surrounds and supports one another with such love.  Grace and comfort is being worked into the menu this week; filled with simple dishes the children enjoy.
