Congratulations, Betsy!
I’m interested in learning more about menu planning, too – and I like the idea of batch cooking, but have been a little intimidated to give it a try. Glad SB is here to help me w/ both

This is so awesome! I’m going to have the Girlies over soon to sharpen our knives! Thank you soooo much Simple Bites; and I Heart Vanilla and Smith’s and Julie van Rosendaal and Canterbury Naturals and Keurig!
Congratulations Betsy!
As for inspiration, I found the BEST recipe for roast chicken ever. Fool proof, delicious, delicious. I was always intimidated with ‘Roast Chicken” because in my experience, both as a chef and as a guest, it was uninteresting or dry or both. Try online Jamie Oliver’s Best Roast Chicken. It’s now a staple recipe for me; I’ve made it twice in two weeks! And it’s SIMPLE!
Thanks for the tip, Terrie. So when can we come for dinner?
