Menu Plan Monday ~ May 13

Do you plan your weekly menu ahead of time?  Or do you fly by the seat of your pants each evening?  I’m curious as to how others plan their meals… I am of course a menu-planning machine.  I follow my plans 95% of the time, sometimes there are evenings where even the best laid plans...

Menu Plan Monday ~ March 18

I spend my Sundays, clipping coupons, writing grocery lists, making pizza dough for dinners this week, and creating this week’s menu plan.  Pinterest is a huge help in menu planning, it’s where I collect all of the recipes I love and all of the recipes I want to try.  And then OrgJunkie’s Menu Plan Monday...

Menu Plan Monday ~ March 11

Another Monday, another menu plan…I know I sound like a broken record, but planning our dinner menu in advance each week really does keep me sane.  And it has made for much more peaceful evenings.  I don’t stress out trying to figure out what to cook, I don’t spend forever trying to pull a meal...
