Menu Plan Monday
So I’ve been trying to come up with ways to be a better blogger. I figure if people that know me are nice enough to come and check me out, I should probably have a little something worthwhile every once in a while. Actually, I’m trying to be more consistent in all things, period. So here is the first of the cool ideas I will be sharing: Menu Plan Monday.
My poor children… Since I’ve been working full-time as a single mom, they just haven’t been fed well at all. They’re not hungry (no need to alert the authorities 
), but it is not at all the quality of food that I want them to have. Plus, it really bothers me that I’m setting them up to be just as clueless about cooking as I am. I’m too tired to think about it when I get home. So I don’t. And we end up eating (what I call) crap. If I knew what to do, I’d get it started. And A would help gladly (as she did tonight). So from now on I’ll think about it once a week, and I will know what to do, and we’ll eat much better.
So without further ado, this week’s very simple, first-time, from a non-cooker plan. 
Monday: Beef tacos, Green beans
Tuesday: BBQ Chicken, Mac-n-chz, Carrots
Wednesday: Not-So-Spaghetti w/ veggie meat, Green beans
Thursday: Thanksgiving at friend’s house
Friday: Creamy Chicken w/ rice, Cob Corn
Saturday: Leftovers
Sunday: Crockpot Chicken & Noodles
Might be time to subscribe to Taste of Home magazine again. Maybe once my accounts stop hemorrhaging and my rent is not 2 months behind on top of that. And did I mention our heat went out? In Michigan. *sigh* I’m just glad the range is not gas, so I can heat the place with the oven and not worry about carbon monoxide on top of worrying about anyone getting burned. Thankfully the 2 year-old is very bright and stays very far away from any sort of danger, including heat sources. So we’re safe, and warm, and now we’re fed too.
