NEW FEATURE: Upload a picture!

Hi friends, I have SUPER exciting news! We have just gone live with a new feature that I’ve been dying for you all to see and experience… organizers can now upload a picture to represent each schedule they create!! I’m just sooo happy to share this with you because it will make each and every schedule you create that much more personal and special.

Oh, and you can even upload a picture to existing schedules. Just go to your dashboard, and click on “edit schedule”. Under the picture at the top right, you can click “upload”, choose the picture you’d like to use, and viola! This will be the picture associated with your schedule.

When you attach the schedule link in a post on Facebook or in a personal message on Facebook, this uploaded picture will show up next to the link. Pretty fancy, huh!? Our IT team is AWESOME!!!

Have a wonderful week, and let me know if you have any questions!

Meal Idea Monday: Tortellini Spinach Bake In Creamy Lemon Sauce

Happy Monday, everyone! I have a delightful meal idea for you that would be perfect to bring someone. It’s from one of my favorite recipe sites, Our Best Bites, and it’s for Tortellini Spinach Bake In Creamy Lemon Sauce.

I’m all about the one pot type of dinners I can bring someone. It makes it so much easier on everyone. I’d bring it in a disposable container that you don’t want back. And to top it off and tie it all together, I’d bring a package of brightly colored napkins, plates, and plastic forks. It will bring joy to their dinner table to have both a home cooked meal from you that was made with love and care, as well as bright colors to eat that meal on.

I hope you have a wonderful week, and don’t forget to smile… it’s  contagious!

Hi there, friends! I have a delicious meal idea for you today that comes from What’s Cookin Chicago (a GREAT recipe resource.) It’s Chesapeake Bay Salmon, and all I have to say is YUMMY!

Salmon is so delicious, and I have to be honest with you that I rarely make it. So finding this beautiful recipe was motivating for me. I’m ready to bring salmon to my dinner table, as well as to a friend’s doorstep. Are you?

Enjoy your week!

Remembering Our Heroes and a Meal Idea Monday

It’s a beautiful Monday, and one that I’m thankful for. Today on Memorial Day, we get to honor all of the men and women who have given their lives serving our country in the US Military. And it’s not only those men and women I will be honoring and thinking about today… it’s their families. They have made one of the biggest sacrifices I know of, and they think of and miss them each day. I cannot imagine how hard that must be, and how much they miss their loved ones.

I’d like to even take it one step further. Today our family will be thinking of and honoring those who have given their lives while serving their communities as Firefighters or Police Officers. They are true heroes as well. And to their families and friends, thank you from the bottom of my heart- you are heroes too!! Thank you. So very much. You are loved, appreciated, and cared about by so many.

Today is a day to get together with those you are close with, think of the fallen soldiers and their families, and then be thankful for what God has given you. We all have so much to be thankful for!

Here’s a few recipes that I found on The Food Network for Crunchy Lemonade Drumsticks and Antipasto Salad… could be great to make for dinner to share with your friends tonight!

Also, here’s a video that I wanted to share with you as we honor our fallen heroes…it’s about an incredible woman who’s husband was killed in Afghanistan, and her story. This is what Memorial Day is all about.

Have A Meal Delivered!!

We are SO very excited to share with you that we now offers the option of having a meal delivered to your friends and family!!

Thank you to The TLC Kitchen for helping to make this possible! They make chef prepared meals in their USDA approved kitchen, and deliver them anywhere in the continental US. The meals are delicious, and they’re delivered in a cooler with dry ice. So they can be eaten right away or frozen to enjoy at a later time.

This is an incredible option for family and friends who live out of town and still want to show their love and support. It’s great for those who go to sign up for a day on a meal schedule, only to find that the schedule is full. And it’s great for those who just have a busy life and still want to help, but making a meal just isn’t in the cards for now.  Or it’s just a great way to change things up a bit.

We are just super excited about this, and can’t wait for you all to try it out!!

Have a wonderful weekend as we remember all the amazing men and women who have given their lives serving this great country we live in.
