Happy Monday!
I had so many plans for today’s post, since is the first
time I am sharing my menu plan and linking up with Organizing Junkie. I was
going to share about how Shelby and I spent four hours on Saturday waiting
patiently in line to me Ree Drummond, The Pioneer Woman. I wrote this entire entry over and over again
in my head while waiting in that line, too.
Well, in typical me fashion, I have lost my USB cord that
goes with my small digital camera. I know I put it somewhere and probably said
“I am going to put this right here so it doesn’t get lost.” Don’t you just hate
that!
So all my memories are stuck until I find the cord – which I
will do this evening and then share with you our entire story tomorrow. I just
know in the process of looking I will find the twenty things that were
misplaced last week. Hmmm…kind of ironic that I talking about losing things and
missing things on the day I am linking with a blog called Organizing Junkie.
Yeap, I need to do some serious reading.
Anyway, on to the menu planning.
JAG and I decided in December that 2012 was going to be the
year of the budget. We were going to make it and stick to it and even use a
snazzy little program so we could see where our money was going. In January I
sat in front of our program (we are using mint.com) and analyzed December. We
spent $450 eating out in December. Yeap. Now, my husband does travel for
business and that was included (his dining out), but still it was a bad month.
That is when I vowed that we will eat at home!
So to end the rambling I chose to link-up so that I can
share and receive ideas from others. Menu planning is the key to all sanity in
my house – our schedules are crazy 98% of the time.
Here is what we are eating this week.
Thursday: Left overs or Sandwiches (Shelby is out this
night, so it’s just me and JAG).
Since I am not a food blogger or a creative person in the
kitchen I have linked the recipes above with their original source – just click
away. (click on the items above)
If you need other ideas for planning your weekly menu –
which I strongly suggest that you do- head on over to Organizing Junky:
