Well, it's official. It's back. All of it. Choir, Bible study, school, preschool, ballet...it's all back. I'm thrilled!! I love the fall and all of the new beginnings. I love football season. I love a break from the hot weather. And I love getting everything and everyone back on a schedule. Here is our menu:
Sunday - cinnamon rolls, turkey bacon and orange slices
baked ziti and cloverleaf rolls
leftovers
Monday - crunchy peanut butter toast, bananas and milk
Monday roast, new potatoes, carrots and bread and butter
Tuesday - blueberry muffins, eggs and milk
roast beef sandwiches on white bread, apple slices
Wednesday - cereal and milk, apple juice
Crock Pot chicken and artichokes, rigatoni, green salad
Thursday - cinnamon rolls, yogurt
chili with cornbread, sour cream, cheddar cheese
Friday - beef hash and toast, milk
chili dogs, mixed veggie salad and chips
Saturday - blueberry muffins, fruit smoothies
pizza
leftovers
To make this menu work for me I need to do a Saturday baking. I store fresh baked items in the freezer if I'm not eating them the same or very next day. This supplies my desserts, snacks, dinner breads and breakfast items. I thaw in the microwave right before meal time. I also try to make my Sunday baked ziti on the Friday or Saturday before so that I can pull it out after church and warm it up. Because Saturday is so full of cooking and baking for the rest of the week and because I don't want to miss any Alabama football games, I like to order pizza or have snacks at meal time. For lunches during the week Addie and I eat a lot of sandwiches and left overs. Give it try and marvel at how much extra time you have on weekday evenings and how much money you save. Good luck!!
