We’re on a super-tight budget, so [...]

This week’s menu plan is about using up what I already have. I went grocery shopping Friday afternoon but already had the weekend meals planned.

Elizabeth posted this in Meal Planning, Menu Monday on June 14th, 2010 I’m late posting today because I’ve been at the township library. My 13 year old son Ryan applied for and was chosen as one of 16 summer Teen Volunteers, and today was his first day! He helped sign kids up for the Summer Reading Program and then ran a water-relay-race game outside. I’m so proud [...]
