Fuzzy Headed Mom on Muffin Tin Monday

Last week I completely forgot to actually link up my Muffin Tin Monday post with Muffin Tin Monday.  Kind of funny.  I've been running around doing last minute things before Pierce starts school later this week, so I've been kind of forgetful.  I'm looking forward to getting back into a rhythm of school days though. 

This was Reid's dinner the other night:
He had homemade bread with butter, cheese tortellini in a marinara sauce, salad (cucs and tomatoes from our garden) with ranch, and a fundamiddles cupcake (my mom brought over a couple of boxes of the mix that she'd found on clearance, so we had fun making them).  He liked this dinner pretty well. 

Now, if only I can remember to actually add this to the link up this week!  Anyone else feel like they're missing a few brain cells lately?  Please tell me I'm not the only one....

    Right now I feel like I am forgetting something, but I am not sure what it is.

    Mmm tasty! Good luck to Pierce on his first day of school. Hailey starts next Tuesday for preschool. I'm sad but also excited for her.

    Have a great week! :)

    Another tasty (and cute!) meal!

    Yep, I hear you on feeling that the little grey cells aren't up to par. Seems like my usual remedy, coffee, is not working like usual.

    Livie started school last week and I start tomorrow, so it'll definitely be nice getting back into that good, ol' routine.

    I always feel hungry after I read your Muffin Tin posts . . .

    Yes, I am terribly forgetful, and I don't even have small children!

    I know what you mean-this time of year is crazy! Amy goes back two weeks from this Wednesday, but she has several meetings before then.

    Here's wishing Pierce a great first day of school and school year too! :)

    Hi Lisa, You do so well ---keeping up with the things you have to do raising 3 young children. I'm proud of you!!!!!! Can't believe that Pierce starts school already... Times are flying--aren't they????

    That meal looks delicious... I'd enjoy that one also!!!!

    Hugs,
    Betsy

    Yes my brain is not working right. Since I'm a teacher I already have a lot on my mind, then Mica's birthday and school lists and such. You had the twin's birthdays; therefore you are in the same boat as me.

    I was filling out a school paper for Mica last week on the spot. It said, "Child's name". I put mine. Different things like that, I kept doing. Finally my husband said, "Hand it to me! I'll fill it out!"

    Those muffin tins are really cute! How fun to eat out of little containers.

    It's so refreshing, Lisa, to see how you serve nutritious foods to your family. Reid'a dinner looks very good.

    That's a fun lunch. It's no wonder that he enjoyed it!

    I guess moms have the right to be a little forgetful. That is what my hubby is for to remember what I forget. Hope you have a great week.

    I've got lists going all over my house--yeah, you are not the only one losing their mind. It's a busy time of year--one kid starting her senior year of high school and the other leaving for his junior year in college. I'm not sure if I have less time or money these days. Ugh.

    So, yeah, you are not alone!

    The portions are awesome for kids, but every time I see this I think about how many adults could stand to have fun smaller portions like this and even be able to eat desert too
