Toni’s Week

Now that I can smell food again, I decided it was time to get back on track with a menu plan. Along with my menu plan I have a question. My kids are a rebellious lot who have decided they don’t like sandwiches anymore. Personally, I can’t stand lunch because it breaks up our school day and we always seem to get off track. Sandwiches are quick and easy and don’t require a lot of clean-up. I am curious, what does your family eat for lunch? I grew up on sandwiches so I don’t have a lot of pity for my kids who now claim to hate them. What would you do, make them eat sandwiches or vary the menu?

Here is our menu for the week of November 2nd.

Lunch- Sandwiches, Fruit

Dinner-Pasta, Breadsticks, Salad

Kate’s Week

This week I will be doing some freezer cooking but I don’t have as much planned as usually do during the first week of the month. We started our monthly shopping this weekend but will not be finished until our second trip on Wednesday. I decided to take advantage at some sales at Meijer’s this week instead of just our regular Kroger’s. That is why there will be two trips this week. It’s unusual for us and I’m not sure how it will work, but it’s going to be interesting.
