I’ve been trying to stick to my menu more - but sometimes Joshua changes it. 🤣. Not really! Our schedule changes it sometimes though!
Friday - Sesame pork loin, souper rice, corn and biscuits
Saturday - dinner at my moms
Sunday - there’s a pot luck at church
Monday - shepherds pie (thanks to my mom)
Tuesday - Crescent Roll pot pie
Wednesday - a frozen meal
Thursday - Tacos!
Spring time is blooming! We always joke here that we get the last snow on April 27th - and that is true many years - but this year doesn't seem like the norm so I am doubting we will see anymore . . .even just a light dusting! Things are quieting down around here again, which is good, as we are pushing through to finish up school over the next few weeks. Nate is trying to finish by mid-May and Josh is aiming for the end of May. I still have to cook though so here is the plan for the coming week:
Friday - Chick-Fil-A Nuggets and Fries
Saturday - Joshua and Nate have a youth activity so Darryl and I are going on a date.
Sunday - Roast, Potatoes, and carrots in the crock pot.
Monday - Beef and Pasta Soup with yeast rolls
Tuesday - tacos and Salad
Wednesday - Leftover Soup and crescent rolls
Thursday - Chicken Alfredo and Garlic Bread
After a super busy week last week, I'm looking forward to a much quieter week this week. I did a lot of running around last week with kids due to Nate having state testing but it was also enjoyable as I got to enjoy two afternoons "in town". For as much running around I do to lessons and youth group, I seldom leave our general area. Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with that or just being home - but it sure is a nice treat to have an afternoon out (and by myself since Nate was testing!)
Anyway, here is the plan for the coming week:
Friday: It's fun food Friday (maybe that should be a thing HA!). Crescent wrapped smokies, stuffed mushrooms, and chili cheese dip.
Saturday - Dinner at my mom's
Sunday - Pork Loin in the crock pot, baked potatoes, green beans, and yeast rolls.
Monday - Tacos.
Tuesday - I have a ladies night out with my Sunday School Class so I'm going to use left over pork loin to make pulled pork and serve that with Mac and Cheese.
Wednesday - Two options for Darryl and I - leftover tacos or pulled pork OR there is leftover soup in the freezer from a few weeks ago.
Thursday - Meatloaf, Mashed Potatoes, Corn, and crescent rolls.
We are going to hit the ground running this week after a great week off. This is our last SUPER busy week for awhile which is good. We are nearing the end of school and I want to keep the momentum going so we can be done no later than the end of May. I'll add some info to our days with the menu
Friday - This is the last day of spring break. We are planning to go to a Library Trivia Event in the afternoon. The plan for dinner is a French Dip Sandwiches and French Fries.
Saturday - Dinner at my Father-in-laws (but brunch with my mom!)
Sunday - Slow Cooker Zuppa Tuscana and French bread. I really love to have meals ready when we get home from church.
Monday - It's Eclipse Day! We are meeting up with others from our Co-Op at the airport viewing area as Grand Rapids is almost in the line of totality - it should get pretty dark. Nate also has TKD once we get home so I'll just plan some thing easy like Pot Pies for Darryl and Josh and cereal for Nate and I :-)
Tuesday - Nate has state testing all afternoon. Plus Josh has drums. So to keep it simple, I'm pulling spaghetti sauce out of the freezer and we are having spaghetti!
Wednesday - Nate's second day of state testing. They guys will have youth group too. Soup and biscuits - easy peasy during a super busy week.
Thursday - I think there is nothing today! (Well lots of school work!). My plan is to put a pork loin in the oven to cook slowly (and make the house smell amazing). I think I'll put baked potatoes/sweet potatoes in the crock pot and cook up some green beans. Yum!
