Meal Plan Februar 28 - March 6th


This is where I write all of our meals for the month - just the basics not the cookbook location or even necessarily all of the sides just the main dish!

Writing it down in a visible spot allows me to glance up and see if meat needs to be defrosted or make plans for company or not.  Most importantly it keeps me reliable - how you might ask?  The Hubs looks at this almost every night and by the time he wakes up in the morning he is SET for whatever it is I have planned - he craves it - and if he wants it I make it!

Of course last Friday he did not feel like Chicken Fajita Chowder and having been sick all week I definitely was not up for cooking a laborious meal - so - we ordered pizza!

Here's our menu for this week:

Breakfasts:

Monday: French Toast, Applesauce, Peanut Butter
Tuesday: Cereal & Cantaloupe
Wednesday: Chorizo & Eggs with Tortillas & Salsa
Thursday: Syrup Pancakes, Cantaloupe, Sausage
Friday: Omelette's, Toast, Grapes
Saturday: Chocolate Chip Pancakes, Cantaloupe, Egg
Sunday: Cereal, Grapes

Lunches:

Monday: Mac N Cheese, Grapes
Tuesday:Peanut Butter Sandwiches, Strawberries
Wednesday: Hubs is making lunch - its a surprise!
Thursday: Leftover Chili, Cornbread, Carrots & Ranch 
Friday: Quesadillas, Black Beans, Cantaloupe
Saturday: Peanut Butter Sandwiches or Leftover Chili
Sunday: Hamburgers, French Fries, Fruit
Dinners:
Monday: Chili & Cornbread
Tuesday: Chicken Romano Pasta, Garlic Bread, Salad
Wednesday: Out for my Bday!
Thursday: Spaghetti A La Carbonera
Friday: Enchilada Casserole, Beans, Tortilla Chips, Corn
Saturday: BBQ Pizza, Salad

Bon Appetit,

Garden Update

Image
We had an awesome week - weather wise - until the weekend then we got slammed by wind.  Thankfully we didn't sustain any major damage (although our patio cover tried to fly across the yard and we had to anchor it down better).  The garden is a bit wind blown and everything is leaning but we harvested some yummy food this week: Two Strawberries @ .5 Ounces Kale @ 12.25 Ounces 3 Artichoke @ 1 Pound 4.375 Ounces A Grand total of 2.07 Pounds The girls ate the strawberries and LOVED them - Little C keeps checking for more every time she goes outside and Big C tells her they are not ready then secretly asks if she can have the next ripe one!  For the kale I am going to try steaming it down like spinach and freezing it?!?  And I cannot wait to steam the artichoke and eat them dipped in mayonnaise - yummy! Happy Gardening All, Ash of All Trades

Theme Thursday: Bugs & Insects

Image
This week (and next) we are working on bugs and insects.  Lots of Eric Carle inspiration here folks and the girls are loving it!  The books we read over and over and over are: For activities we started with: Playing with our caterpillar felts. The girls reenacted the Eric Carle Story using their kitchen food. Big C also had to order the pieces by "age" telling the story of transformation. And they just played with them making them talk and such. Then we did fingerprint ants.  These are Big C's she even drew the antennae and legs! (They are supposed to be in tunnels). Then we made a glue web.  Squeeze white glue in the shape of a web. Let dry and voila! Little C's fingerprint ant.  She did not like paint on her fingers. Played with our fly, spider, and web. Talked about how spiders trap flies and drink their blood. Again they made her talk and named her and made her friendly.  Made caterpillars out of playdoh.  Big C also made an egg on a leaf and a cocoon. Then
