The Organized Life, March Paint Bucket

Can you believe it’s March already? Yea Spring is almost here!  Time for a new bucket list of recipes~

I never make everything on the list and try to leave lots of room for variation and adaptation depending on what’s going on.  The February list really helped me make some wonderful things and pushed me to try new recipes even during very busy days.  Sometimes I just don’t have time to think or plan so I go to the list and just choose something~

Here’s some things I might try this month

Appetizers

Green Goddess Dip

Vegetable Pot Stickers [brought over from the February List]

Bite Size Gourmet Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
