Hey there reader
I can't believe it's June! Seriously, how is 2022 halfway through? Crazy!
Anyway, I survived another dance recital season; I think this might be my 12th or 13th season. This was the first year my daughter did everything on her own. She's in 7 dances, got all of the costumes organized, and did her hair and makeup. I sat back and enjoyed the show for the first time, and I was so proud of her!
It was also a little sad. I saw all of these moms with their little girls just starting the dance mom journey, and I was close to the finish line. While a part of me looks forward to a more calm life, I got a little choked up because I will miss it.
The end of the dance recital season means the start of summer for us. Well, kind of. My girls still have a week or so left of school, and then it's smooth sailing for a couple of months. This has been a hectic year, and we can all use a break.
I haven't had a chance yet to start stocking the freezer with meals, but I plan to work on that over the next week or so.
Okay, let's get to the weekly update.
I loved all of the emails and comments about my weekly update post last week. Thank you. It was fantastic to feel all that love and support; I felt so motivated. Just as promised, I'm keeping them going!

Recipes to Try This Week.
Now that summer is right around the corner, I thought I'd share more easy recipes to enjoy when the weather gets warmer.
- Strawberry Banana Smoothie. My girls love this smoothie!
- Cherry overnight oats. The perfect easy breakfast recipe to use up cherries.
- Healthy Banana Bread. I bake this way too much during the summer, but my kids (and their friends) are obsessed with it.
- Italian grilled chicken. This is delicious with a Caprese salad (using cherry tomatoes) or served alongside roasted Italian potatoes.
- Turkey Ranch Wrap. This is one of my old-school OYS recipes that I still make all of the time. It's so easy to throw together, especially if you have bacon ready ahead of time.
- Chicken Parmesan Burger. I mean, need I say more?
Do you need a DELICIOUS Gluten-Free Pasta salad to bring to parties this summer? Try this new Caprese Pasta Salad, I shared it on my sister site, Gluten-Free Italian Eats, and people love it!
