Menu Plan Monday ~ November 2

It’s been quite a while since I’ve published a Menu Plan Monday post, but I need to start doing this again.  Making a menu plan each week is so beneficial and there were too many nights in the past few months where we found ourselves eating out because I wasn’t prepared and armed with a...

Menu Plan Monday ~ June 22

Summer seems like it’s quickly slipping by, and I’ve been terrible at planning our menus, which has resulted in too many dinners out and too much money spent.  I’m working to fix that, starting with our menu plans.  They really are a time saver and a stress reliever!  I just need to remember to work...

I’m jumping back on the Menu Planning bandwagon after being absent for a while.  I NEEEEEED Menu Planning to stay sane!  It helps me to save money at the grocery store and to save my sanity at dinner time when I’m scrambling to figure out what to cook.  I’ve recently starting substitute teaching, and while...

Another Monday, another Menu Plan!  I did a great job of following our menu plan last week, and we had some delicious dinners.  We also had dinner out on Saturday, which was a real treat.  Every December we have a special day with the kids in Downtown Cincinnati.  We went to the Taft Theatre to...

Menu Plan Monday {November 24}

Last week we did so much better at eating dinner at home vs. dining out.  There was one evening that Michael was working late and I  had no desire to cook so I took the kids out to eat, but only because we had FREE coupons for kids meals.  And then on Friday night we...
