May certainly started and ended with a bang! The first day it was 90 degrees and the last day (yesterday) was a balmy 45 degrees with uninterrupted rain and in some parts of my state…flooding. These drastic highs and lows in many ways represent my life overall. A series of spasmodic high and low moments. But isn’t that what makes this journey fun and oh so worth the drive? Ok. I’ve given you enough lines of philosophy for one post. This week’s menu plan is as diverse as my hometown’s weather and as random as my ramblings. I hope that you are able to find a morsel of inspiration. Happy Monday and Hello June (we can’t believe you are upon us) :)
