Menu Monday – May 13th

Whew, what a week, what a week.   Actually, I don’t remember much of the last week.  That’s kinda sad.  I do remember putting in extra hours at work.  I remember putting together teacher appreciation gifts for the kids’ teachers.  I remember having a very busy, but fun Saturday.  Everything else was kind of a …

Menu Monday – May 6

Happy Monday to you!  This week I’m starting a new eating plan for myself, The Fast Metabolism Diet.  While I’d like to lose a few pounds, that isn’t the main reason I’m trying it.  I’m trying it for a couple of reasons:  1, I really, really want more energy; 2, I gave up gluten for …

I’m on burnout mode…oh man, oh man. This isn’t because of anything bad, no no.  The last two weeks have been insanely exciting, fun, and good….but tiring, too! We had the premiere for the documentary, The United States of Autism, that our family was in, and that was so awesome.  So awesome!  A few days …

Menu Monday 04/15 – 04/21

Welcome to a new week and another Menu Monday!     I can’t deny it…I’m not excited about it being Monday.  The weekend just wasn’t long enough for me.  Perhaps I’m just wimping out cause I know it’ll be a busy week…we now have a soccer player in the house, so we’ve added practices and …

Happy April!!   I’m feeling all happy and motivated.  I recently celebrated my birthday, and I prefer to set my year long goals at that time, rather than at the beginning of the year.  So between that, the new month, getting this entire week of work, and the fact that we’re starting a new week, …

Menu Monday 3/25

Man, is Monday already here?  That weekend just flew by, as weekends tend to do.  The good news is that this last weekend didn’t include any doctor and/or hospital visits like the one before!   I stuck to my menu plan pretty well last week, except for one day.  I’m so ashamed to admit it!! …

I have fallen out of the habit of planning our family’s meals in advance, and it’s showing…not in our pocketbooks, fortunately, but in our bad moods, ha ha!   It’s been a scramble to throw something together each night, and there are usually a few grumbles because I won’t just give in and take the …

Monday’s Menu Experimenting

I have set a new (rather lame) goal for myself.   I want to actually TRY some of the recipes I’ve found on Pinterest.   So perhaps the goal itself isn’t so lame.  Perhaps it’s the fact that I have to set it as a goal to actually accomplish it that is lame.  I don’t …
