Where did today go?! I got quite a bit accomplished, but there are still a number of tasks lingering on my To Do list. I know that I should just get them done, but I’m feeling extremely unmotivated. 
I think the holiday/vacation mindset has already taken over my brain.
Dinner
Mal took the reins on dinner tonight. He made one of my favorite Real Simple recipes: Last-Minute Lasagna. (You can read my previous recipe recap here.)
Ravioli + salad.
Delicious meal!! Mal did a great job. Love this recipe! 
Snack
I got a little creative in the kitchen this afternoon. I had one lonely apple in the fridge, so I decided to make it into an apple crisp-like snack. I cut up the apple, placed it in a bowl, and then topped it with a mixture of canned pumpkin, cinnamon, brown sugar, flour, and oats. It was pretty darn good!
I’m spending the night relaxing with M & M! Enjoy the evening, blog friends!

I’m totally in holiday mode and finding it incredibly difficult to motivate myself! The lasagne looks great
Dinner looks delish…. I should have my hubby make this since it’s super easy.
That snack looks great! I’m rarely ever that creative with my little meals, but your inspiring me to do something fun with my own lone apple. Have a great night!

Microwave apples is one of my favorite snacks of late — with a little cinnamon and nutmeg, it’s a hot and healthy dessert-y snack.
That is some delicious looking ravioli!! YUM!
Ooh, that ravioli looks so round and cute! At first, it looked like there were tons of balls of mozzarella cheese in there.
Good luck with your to-do list.
M & M = cute and creative!! Love it
That is such a creative idea for lasagna!
I was just looking for a great recipe to make for dinner tomorrow night, and I think it’s going to have to be the lasagna recipe on here! Perfecto!
So excited to try that recipe. I love lasagna but don’t always have time for it.
And my to do list isn’t completed tonight either but I’m not doing it. It can wait til tomorrow.
m and m! love it.
I’ve been wanting to try that lasagna forever now but I just haven’t found a frozen ravioli that I love. I definitely need to get on that because yours looks delish.
That lasagna looks FANTASTIC! The vacation mindset is taking over my brain too! Mine officially starts at 5pm today (my boss just gave me tomorrow off !!!!!). can’t wait!
