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:

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

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

Sausage Potatoe Packets

Image
Here is our yummy version of a sausage potato packet...I am sure plenty of people make many varities of these and I hear they are great when camping but I like to make them at home! Use one Hillshire Farms sausage link. Cut it up into bite size pieces. Get some fresh or frozen bell peppers and onions. A few potatoes.  (4 for the four of us). Wash them. Poke holes in them. Cook for 2-3 minutes (not all the way) just enough for the cooking process to have started.  This way you don't have to wait 40 minutes for the potatoes to cook on the bbq. Add the sausage to a strip of foil. For a packet with some heat - chop a jalapeno or other chili. Add the potatoes, bell peppers, onion, (chilies) and olive oil. You can peal the potatoes or leave them whole - they get a bit crispier if you leave the skin on! Spread some garlic salt over the top. Mix with your hands to coat a bit. Cover with another piece of foil that is ni...

Big Girl Room Unveiled!

Image
So Little C decided that she would like a big girl bed.  And that she didn't want diapers. So for the last two weeks we have been redoing her room and potty training!  Now while neither one if completely done they are fully improved and fully functioning.  Her theme as shown above is owls and nature! Now this was a thrifty room makeover (and sorry but I don't have any nursery pictures on this computer!) but still expensive considering we went from crib & changing table to bed, dresser, and armoire.  We did luck out and actually gave Big C's furniture to Little C and purchased Big C a new bed, dresser, and desk from the neighbor (half of for only 9 month old furniture) LOVE IT!  Big C's room is still in progress so no pictures yet but back to Little C's room! Here we used some garland at Michael's (Buy One Get One Free) to make a unique "moulding" of sorts.  $50 and one extra garland later voila! Add in a decorative armoire with Porcelain dolls...
