my food boards are put to use!

It was a hot day. Typical. But it's always nice spending time with my loves. We got to eat at our favorite pho restaurant before we ran our errands. I've pinned a lot of recipes off of Pinterest in the past, but never really made them. Now I have a reason to! I picked out a couple of recipes and wrote it down on our grocery list.  Instead of our to-go-tos (wal mart & HEB), we went to HEB plus. It's almost like a market and of course, more choices to choose from. It's a little further out from where we live, but we stayed for quite some time! It was pretty neat. For dinner tonight, I made a crock pot recipe called tater tot casserole from http://www.tamileetips.com If you're interested in wanting to make this dish, visit her site. This is one of their top ten recipes. 

While the casserole cooked for 3 hours, I began the dessert recipe. Healthy Blueberry banana bread from http://www.mynaturalfamily.com . I typically do not eat bananas, but really like banana bread. While my mom was here, she bought bananas. I haven't touched them until now. Super ripe they were! I figured I'd do something with them instead of throwing them away. I'm also putting my blueberries to good use  from picking during this summer. So this recipe was perfect! It turned out really good!
