Happy Saturday and happy last-day-of-September to you!

Super quick today because I’ve been knee deep in party prep – we’re throwing Dominic’s birthday party today! Multiple trips to Party City and Michaels later, I think we’re ready! Just need to do some last minute stuff this morning and we’ll be good to go! I hope you have a fantastic weekend – what do you have planned?!

As always, you’ll find a recap of what was posted to the site this week, the most shared recipes, my Sunday dinner menu, and recipes I’ve bookmarked from other blogs. Enjoy!

I made this one skillet ground beef stroganoff for dinner this week and couldn’t believe how easy it was and how little time it took, start to finish. We loved it, a definite must-make for weeknight dinners!

How amazing is this pinch champagne cake?! It would be so great for a bridal shower or a baby shower!

I want to eat this autumn chopped salad every day for the next two months.

Adding dulce de leche thumbprint cookies to my holiday baking list!
