One full week into the new year – can you believe it?!
Back into the full swing of things in our house! Big kids are at school and daycare kids are returning to their normal schedules. I am gearing up for a OAMM cooking day, so trying to clear out my deep freezer and my fridge freezer of things that need to be eaten!
One of my personal goals for 2012 is to have menu planning become a weekly habit, not just something that I do every so often. I find myself planning and doing great for a few weeks before I fall back into the chaos.
When I do menu plan, it not only saves us money, but also saves me the frustration of figuring out what to eat at our next meal.
