Jill Sibbald 10/26/2016 9:35 AMAlso, we made another 'Sheet Pan Supper' from the cook book - amazing roasted chicken with lemon and rosemary. Add in the sliced potatoes and it was delicious ! Next time though to get some vegies into the recipe, I would add brussell sprouts or even corn on the cob to the pan. Would add a lot of color and more nutrients to the meal.-

Jill Sibbald 10/26/2016 9:33 AMNo TV last night - although it was tempting. Instead I organized some items in my studio - I love vintage items and feel good about purchasing old lace and buttons. Possibly keeping them from the landfill, but also reusing them to make other artful creations. -
Jill Sibbald 10/18/2016 1:45 PMOne of my challenges is making a weekly menu, purchasing the necessary ingredients and then following through with making the meal ! It was fun to look through a cookbook I purchased but hadn't used yet and finding a few options with local ingredients - it's called 'Sheet Pan Suppers'. I posted a photo of our BBQ Chicken Nachos on Instagram last night - #nweiecochallenge. And the bonus ? They were delicious ! -
Jill Sibbald 10/17/2016 10:42 AMI love visiting my local farm for fresh fruits and vegetables; especially in the fall. Thistledown Farm never disappoints and I was delighted to find these gorgeous brussel sprouts that will find their way into a meal this week.
