Menu Plan Monday

Yay! My first Menu Plan Monday. I love to plan our menus. I ALWAYS have a plan before I go grocery shopping. We may not stick to it perfectly but it does serve us well as a guide. This is our first week back to home schooling after the summer. So, I may be overly ambitious here.

Monday: Homemade pizzas

Tuesday: Roasted Turkey, stuffing, dumplings, sweet potato casserole, rolls. I am in a Fall kind of mood and turkey was $.78 a pound last week. It is supposed to be cooler toward the end of the week so it may get moved.

Wednesday: Leftovers

Thursday: Pinto beans, cornbread

Friday: Company is coming for the weekend. We will be eating out on Friday Night.

Saturday: Going to the State Fair. Will likely just consume 4,000 calories of junk food. Corn dogs, Ribeye sandwiches, cotton candy, candy apples, funnel cakes etc... And Saturday night we will lay around miserable from the heat and the junk food we ate.

Sunday: We will take company out to breakfast before they leave. Will probably just grab something cheap later in the day for supper.


Usually I am much more imaginative. I'm just trying to stretch things a bit this week due to company coming for the weekend.

Underrated

As a cake, I think Bunt cake is underrated. It has lots of nooks for icing. Perfect for a six-year-old to cover in sprinkles. AND it fits in my yard-sale Tupperware without the work of all the round pans and layers.
