Do you plan your weeks cooking ahead of time? I do. On Sunday morning I sit down in my office and I plan out what we are going to eat all week.
Meal planning for me, really, is pretty easy. My Mr. works a weird shift at work that rotates so he is only home for dinner a few nights per week. Those nights I try to cook a NICE meal with the trimmings. I mean, he works hard and he deserves it.
On the nights Mr. C isn’t home, I still cook, but those meals are more KID FRIENDLY. Anything to lessen the amount of whining I have to listen to – WORKS. lol…
Once I have my “loose” menu made (because lets be honest here…sometimes I just don’t feel like making what’s on the list!), I head upstairs to check the pantry and fridge and make out my grocery list for the week.
Mr C likes to go shopping at like 3am when there is NO ONE in their right (or wrong) mind at Wal-Mart. Since he is used to being up all night anyway, and I hate to go to Wal-Mart this works for us. Plus, he seems to spend a lot less when he goes shopping with my list – than we do when I go shopping with my list. LOL!
So what’s on your menu for this week?
