Making a Weekly Plan

This morning I’m thinking about the rest of my week, and how many things I have to do. Of course I’m pulling out my notebook to write a Todoodlist.Click here to view more details I have my menu plan already posted on my calendar. Homeschool is going much better since My son now really understands his schedule of things to do which I have written on these sheets for him to have and keep notes on. We also have a family thing, its Gran Gran’s 80th Birthday. I have to find something to wear, crossing my fingers! And to top it off, Friday I have two research papers due, I know I procrastinate! Now off to doodle my list. Have a great week. What’s on ur TodoodlistClick here to view more details?
Me and Drake, or is it Josh?

Menu Plan Monday 08/01-08/07 (Hurricane Gustav Edition)

Well its Monday night and all is well, although we will be feeling the effects of Gustav at least until Thursday! I’m going to take the things we had bought for the hurricane and what I had left in the freezer for this week instead of taking the chance of going to town in such bad rain. So in a way Its a frugal menu also. So here goes.

This is what I have in my freezer:

  • Chicken (maybe enough for 2 days)
  • Ground Beef
  • Fish (prolly not enough for everyone)
  • 1 steak
  • Corn on the Cob
  • mixed veggies
  • broccoli
  • soup and gumbo mixture

Items in the pantry:

  • canned tomatos
  • rotel tomatos
  • pasta
  • rice
  • various soups
  • Potatos

Items in the Fridge:

  • cheese
  • bacon
  • eggs
  • milk
  • bell peppers
  • onions
  • roast beef and turkey
  • beer
  • tortillas
  • carrots
  • green beans

Well those lists really do not have all that I have on hand, but its a basic list. I have most any seasoning that I’d ever need. Now lets get to work.

Monday/Mexican: Well its over and we had pizza and McDonalds.

Tuesday/CrockPot: Homemade Soup

Wednesday/Southern: Chicken and Dumplings

Thursday/Try Something New: Rotel Chicken with Bacon

Friday/Italian: Since monday was Italian we’ll have Mexican. Fish Tacos

Saturday/Out: We will be gone to the Go Cart Races we hope.

Sunday/Leftovers: There should be plenty

I hope this menu works this week. If not there is always PB&J! For more menus go over to Orgjunkie. Also my friend Amber is new to blogging and has her organic menu up so if you don’t mind, check her out too!

Friday: Itallian

Saturday: Grilled
