Happy Monday! Today we get back into our regular routines of school, homework, and all that non holiday stuff. Personally, I like getting back into the regular routine but I do miss the fun of the holidays and the laid back feeling you have when they are around.
Part of the schedule around here is meal planning. It can be a real struggle! However, I was reading over at Cup of Tea a few days back and Katie shared her secret to successful meal planning. Every week she publishes out what her family is having for dinner. The coolest part is she puts together the menus along with the shopping list that goes with each one. She files them under a winter or summer label and viola...her menus are ready to go year after year!
I loved that idea so much I stole it! (Thanks, Katie!)
This year I'll be sharing with you our weekly menu along with any extras I plan to make for the week. Maybe I can inspire you when you are in a dinner planning slump?
So guys, here's what we're eating!
