Menu Plan Monday ~ October 13

Another Monday, another Menu Plan.  I’m sharing what we ate last week, but I’ve been a slacker and I’m still trying to figure out what we are going to eat THIS week at home!  Eek!  I’m usually better prepared than this.  I guess that today will have to be a “leftover” day or “eat whatever...

Menu Plan Monday {June 30 2014}
