Summer break has officially started and so have the 11yo’s perpetual hunger pangs. We have huge stacks of books to get through (doing our first mother-daughter book club). We have meals to cook together (self sufficiency in the kitchen is summer goal #2). And we have lots of side-by-side working sessions ahead of us (‘cause the real world does not stop for summer). Finding the right balance may take us a few weeks. Hoping that thinking through at least a handful of meals will help get us there with plenty of home cooked food in our bellies:
