Hello, there my 36th Avenue friends. It’s Gina from Kleinworth & Co. Is life getting a little busy for you right now? I know, with all the demands on the schedule this time of year, it makes it so hard to want to get in the kitchen & make dinner. I have devoted the whole month to our favorite quick & easy recipes so we can spend less time in the kitchen & more time doing things we love, like exploring the beautiful lakes all around us.

This time of year the bald eagles are everywhere & it’s so cool to go watch them while they are here. So it’s great when we can carve out time to get out there & do that. Spending less time making dinner is a great way to free up the schedule.

We used to get take-out at least once a week. But since we moved to this area it’s been really hard to find really good Chinese food. So after trying every place in town, we have had to learn to make our own, which really hasn’t been all that bad. Now we are to the point where we actually prefer our recipes over the restaurant. I love that because now I can have it whenever the craving strikes & it takes less time to make it than it does to wait for take-out. That’s a huge win for me!
