Sorry about December - we left on the 17th and all meals to that point had but one theme - quick and easy! I may do a mega cookie post in honor of December - but for now lets get going on January.
All I have right now in my fridge is a 1/2 gallon of milk, a 1/2 gallon of light silk chocolate soy milk, the dregs of some apple sauce in a jar, and teriyaki sauce. We've been home for 36 hours. My kids are getting hungry - time to go shopping, and that means a meal plan.
I still have a few to fill in - I want to look through my vegetarian cookbooks again. Also, Corinne gave me "The Joy of Cooking" for Christmas. Can you believe I didn't have it? I've been wanting it for ages. I'll probably have a flip through that and see what looks good too.
This is pretty much how I do most months. Fill in the regulars, then anything that sounds good - it's very cold & rainy today so lots of soup & stew ... then something new or fun with the remaining days.
** Update - I filled in the remaining days. I'm trying a few new things. Check the list below for the additions. Yummy.
WEEK ONE - (the remainder)
