fell off the meal planning wagon

and now i'm clueless about tonight. i am not kidding - there's a whole cauliflower in the fridge plus some baby carrots and hopefully enough milk for tomorrow morning and that's about it. no chicken/beef/turkey/pork. can't serve the frozen nuggets because that's their lunch tomorrow - lol! sam hates eggs, neither kid ate the french toast i made this weekend, and we also recently ate pancakes- so breakfast for dinner won't work.

on the plus side- the fridge is pretty darn clean. you can see straight through to the back and there's nothing to wipe up/clean away. 

maybe take out on the way home. i didn't even have anything to bring for my lunch. must do better next week!

yikes - inspire me so i can make a peapod order quickly!

  • we had pizza this week - the girls and i had mini pies and dh had a pizza roll. it was fun to make them - Ava loved helping.

    last night was the rest of leftover pasta and some frozen meatballs and sauce. 

    it's been a very bread/red sauce/cheese sort of week

  • We actually had spaghetti & meat sauce last night and had I intentions of doing something with the chicken I took out tonight, but both of us are going to home late and quesidillas (I hope) will be quicker. (nice run on sentance, lol)

    There's always canned soup. Paige loves soup night.

  • my girls love the chicken noodle soup at a diner near us - so soup night is there and dh and i can have anything - win win!

    i don't even have canned soup at home! i am in need of restocking. i need to inventory the basement freezer and see what we can do with it next week. time to defrost some stuff and cook again

  • Dam girl you do need to shop!

    I've been trying to make a pot of soup every week. I knew Paige wouldn't be into lentils so she picked out Dora soup last week.
