#55 - A Simple System for Mealtimes: Using Cookbooks Again

from Tidy Tidbits · host Tidy Dad

In this episode of Tidy Tidbits, I share how a simple weekend organizing project unintentionally brought cookbooks back into our daily routine and completely changed how we plan meals, reduce decision fatigue, and connect as a family.Important Links:We’ve been cooking through our family’s cookbook collection!-What to Cook When You Don’t Feel Like Cooking by Caroline Chambers-Oh $#!% What’s For Dinner? by Maria Sansone-The Blood Sugar Balance Cookbook by Meredith Mann -Kids Cook by Betty Crocker-Cookbookery Collective - The cookbook exclusive Substack I’ve been loving!
