This week’s vacation menu is all about keeping meals fun, flavorful, and protein packed. Think sizzling grills, bright flavors, and easy dishes that still feel special enough for a week away from the ordinary. From island inspired jerk chicken to cozy comfort foods like roast chicken and mashed potatoes, every day has a little something to keep the kitchen stress free and the plates satisfying.
And of course, no vacation week would be complete without a good book. This week I’m diving into A Shadow in the Ember by Jennifer L. Armentrout. It’s a romantic fantasy filled with intrigue, mythology, and powerful characters that pull you right into their world. Perfect for pairing with a plate of barbecue ribs or a breezy afternoon by the pool, it’s shaping up to be a read that keeps me hooked long after dinner is done.
