Butternut Squash Ravioli with Buttered Salsa.w

This is one of my favorite fall dishes! When you think of fall you think of leaves changing, pumpkins, sweaters, and for me butternut squash. 
I love butternut squash soup, it’s one of my all time favorites. So when I saw the butternut squash raviolis at Trader Joe’s I was excited. 
I love the raviolis from Trader Joe’s they make dinner so easy when trying to juggle work, school, sports, and everything else life is throwing at us.
The Butternut Squash Ravioli is soft and creamy and the buttered salsa has a fresh, salty, savory flavor that is just so delicious with the ravioli.

3 Wings at 3 different price points in the 303. ($)

Our last place on our journey was definitely one to remember, Monkey Barrel. The decor and atmosphere in this one was unmatched. A whole wall of old school pinball machines, booths with Nintendo 64s loaded with Mario Cart. A ton of outdoor seating with a patio and a parking lot converted into picnic tables, with a spot to play cornhole and a big version of connect four.  Now to get to the food… we ordered the boneless wings with the Thai Asian sauce, a Nashville hot chicken sandwich with fries, and some chips & queso.  The sandwich was good, not very hot, which worked out for the my older kiddo. Wings were okay, sauce was a good combo of spicy and sweet.  Here was our choice for the best: Kiddo 1:Fire On The Mountain “ FOTM had the best wings but had the most fun at Monkey Barrel.” Kiddo 2: Mono Mono Korean Fried Chicken  “Best chicken but Monkey Barrel had the best French Fries.” Apparently he was judging French Fries 😂 Hubby: Fire On The Mountain  “Had th...

Spooky Gingerbread House

On our last trip to Trader Joe’s my son spotted this spooky house kit and well just had to get it. It actually turned out to be a great project… was a little worried because I’m a bit of a perfectionist, I usually have to remind myself they are kids and art is in the eye of the beholder.  I built the house with him as it was difficult for him to keep the pieces up when attaching the next piece. Once we got the house up we let it sit and let the frosting harden a bit before attempting to decorate it. He had so much fun adding all the little candy pieces to it and wanted to explain how he decorated it when he was finished.  It was definitely worth the money, a fun activity for the kids and got them in the holiday spirit!

3 wings at 3 different price points in the 303. ($$)

My kids have really been enjoying watching a show called Worth It on Hulu, even enough that we watched the missing seasons on YouTube. The premise is they try a food item at three different prices and choose the most “worth it” at the end.  So we decided to try 3 wings at 3 different price points around Denver.  The first place we tried was Frie On The Mountain (FOTM).  We ordered eighteen wings with half Parmesan garlic and half Buffalo mild for the kiddos. I ordered a spicy margarita, next time I order it I would ask if I could swap the Tajin rim for a salt rim, just not a fan of Tajin.   We also got the appetizer sampler with onion rings, fried pickle spears and French fries. Overall the decor was relaxing and an enjoyable place to eat some wings. Lots of patio space, of course today was rainy but patios can be enclosed to still allow plenty of seating even when the weather isn’t cooperating. The next 2 wings in the 303 will be posted soon 😊.
