Menu Plan Monday

It was another great weekend.

Gosh, weekends are such sweet family time.  Even if we aren't doing much of anything, don't have many plans, and just stay at home---that's, often times, when it's the most precious.

*Sigh*

We are on to a new week, though, with new adventures!  

What's on your Menu Plan this week??

Here's what we're having:

Monday:  Spaghetti and Homemade Meatballs, Green Salad, Yeast Rolls

TuesdayPork Chops, Mashed Potato Cakes, Spinach Salad

WednesdayBeans and Rice served with Cheese, Sour Cream, Salsa, Tortilla Chips

ThursdayHomemade Waffles with Strawberries and Whipped Cream, Scrambled Eggs, Bacon

FridayHomemade Pizza, Salad, Smoothies

I'm going to be gearing up this week, taking pantry/freezer inventory and coming up with a plan for OAMC (Once A Month Cooking)----That's starting this weekend!!  More on that later!

Here's to a blessed Monday and an even more blessed Week!!

Menu Plan Monday


Holey Moley.

Say it ain't so.

My sweet, newly 3-year-old boy has turned a corner.

A huge corner. (In the potty-training world, that is.)

He went an ENTIRE day on Saturday not wearing a diaper and NO accidents.

None.

None, I say.

Not only that----we were gone all day running errands, shopping, etc. Again, zero accidents.

This is huge.

Huge, I say.

I have been training Luke for months and months with no big success......and then, all the sudden, as if a light switch turned on----he decided he was ready.

I'm ready, too.

Here's what we're eating this week:

Monday: Quiche Lorraine, Homemade Hash Browns, Fruit and THIS Strawberry cake for dessert. (Woah, cake and "pie" in one meal? My kind of meal.)
Tuesday: Chicken Fried Chicken, Perfect Potatoes au Gratin, Corn on the Cob
Wednesday: BBQ Pork Sandwiches, homemade oven Fries, Fruit and homemade Strawberry Shortcakes for dessert. (Can you tell I got a screamin' deal on Strawberries?!)
Thursday: Tomato Soup, Grilled Cheese Sandwiches, Pickles, Fruit
Friday: Date Night!!! (Thanks, Auntie Martha!) Martha and the kiddos will be having homemade Pizza with THIS unleavened pizza crust.
