I had a great lunch the other day and so enjoy working at home so I can work on fridge leftovers so easily. I had leftover beer cheese soup, homemade chicken salad with crackers, and honeycrisp apple slices. Delish.

I'll admit it ... I am newly obsessed with 19 Kids & Counting. Who am I?!?! Ian just shakes his head ... I think he's scared it's making me want eighteen more babies. Mmmm ... maybe not. But seriously, I just love how sweet this family is, and I have to say that a wholesome show like this is a welcome breath of fresh air from the other shows I watch where every third word is often being bleeped out.

Any fellow Keurig owners? And are you a member of Amazon Prime? A few months back I signed us up for a monthly recurring shipment of 72 Donut Shop K-cups through Amazon Prime. By using their "Subscribe and Save" program you save a certain percent off (I think 5%) and it just bills us monthly and the coffee show up at our door. Today is coffee delivery day for us which is great because only three pods remain from our last shipment ... soon to be two.

My husband's birthday was Wednesday and we had a great time celebrating him. His evening started off with a massage I booked for him at 5:00. When he got back to the house, we did cards and presents. Mom was in town, so she gave Camille her last bottle before bed and Ian and I had a great dinner at Fig Tree while she stayed with the baby. It was my first time eating at Fig Tree, and it was delicious! We used Uber to get to and from dinner and that was a nice treat.
Happy weekending to you and yours, and hope you'll link up with us ... it makes our day!
love your skirt, beer cheese soup, recipe please! It sounds yummy!
ReplyDeleteThat lunch looks perfect for fall! And I'm in the exact same boat with 19 Kids and Counting. I've just started watching in a couple weeks ago and my husband just rolls his eyes and leaves the room. Can't say I would raise my family that way, but it is nice to see a show that promotes GOOD family values, instead of crazy cat fights.
ReplyDeleteBetween yummy foods, birthdays, and automatic coffee replacements, it looks like a fantastic week for you and your family. Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDelete19 Kids & Counting is my guilty pleasure!! I love it and you are right, they are a breath of fresh air. People are always gonna talk and hate, but their values shine through them and live with them in the goodness they do!
ReplyDeleteThat lunch looks yummy, a little bit jealous right now - I'd love to work from home! I haven't watched 19 kids and counting in a few years, but I used to and I know what you mean, they are just good people! Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know about the coffee delivery! I am a Prime member and just ordered a 72 count as well so I'll have to sign up for Subscribe and Save- thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI love love love 19 kids and counting too!!! Such a sweet family and I admire their values :)

I am hooked again on 19 kids and counting! Cant wait to watch the wedding on Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteI recently got hooked on 19 Kids & Counting too and can't wait for them to air Jill's wedding! Such a sweet family, and I'm amazed how wonderful each older child has grown into. People make fun of them, but they're doing something right especially with that many kids! Definitely a breath of fresh air on tv :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!
Beer cheese soup sounds amazing! I might have to try that out one weekend! And I had no idea about the Keurig reoccurring shipment. That's awesome! Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteGlad you guys got to have a little date night - it's nice to get out every once in awhile without baby! But then of course we miss them while they're gone! :) Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteYou look great for date night! I've heard great things about fig tree!
ReplyDeletethat lunch looks amazing!! happy birthday to your husband, so glad you had fun celebrating! xo jillian - cornflake dreams
ReplyDeleteI love 19 kids & counting!! It's honestly getting harder for me to watch shows like the housewives & stuff bc of all the trash & negativity. Did you watch Jersey Bell? I'm so hoping for a 2nd season as it too was such an awesome show!!
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous! Glad Ian had a great birthday!
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous! Please share the beer cheese soup recipe...it sounds delicious!
ReplyDeleteI have recently gotten into 19 Kids and Counting too! I agree with the wholesomeness of the show and am completely in awe of the way the live.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea you could get K cups delivered monthly! You just opened a whole new world for me.
Glad your hubby had a good birthday.
Have a great weekend!
Huge Duggar fan! I want to go to one of their weddings, they wouldn't even notice!
ReplyDeletesuch a cute pic of you and Ian! Happy belated to him! glad y'all had a fun night out! ;)
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like Ian had a great birthday! You two are so sweet!
ReplyDeleteI'm a Prime member and have a Keurig! What is your fave flavor? I'm having a hard time picking out good coffees! And where is Fig Tree??? xo
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your hubby! Getting away is always good. I'm newly discovering 19 kids too, and my husband does the same thing, shakes his head and wonders why I'm watching. I can't stop watching!
ReplyDeleteI recently started watching 19 kids too and I love it! My hubs thinks I'm crazy too though. And smart idea on getting K-Cups through Amazon!
ReplyDeleteI am a huge 19 kids fan too! I follow their blog and I agree it's so nice to have a wholesome show! My husband also rolls his eyes though he would happily welcome 4-6 kids into our family and I'm trying to figure out a way I can arrange a marriage between Ellie and a Duggar!!
ReplyDeleteUsing Uber for a date night sounds genius! And now I must look up Beer Cheese Soup recipe! Happy Friday!

I have been a fan of the Duggers for years! I'm currently reading their book, A Love That Multiplies. They're great role models and proof that you can raise wholesome children even in this day and age.
ReplyDeleteAnd honestly, I know 19 kids seems like a lot, but when I look at the fact that both of my grandmothers had over ten kids each, it doesn't seem so out of place. I enjoy having a large family.
Love that pic of you and Ian for his birthday! Mommyhood sure does look good on you!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like the absolute perfect lunch! And beer cheese soup?? Recipe please!
