Menu for Next Week

I'll start with how supper went last night and go from there :). We had Chicken and Wild Rice Soup with homemade biscuits. Wee-one has loved wild rice since we introduced it a few months ago so I figured he'd love this soup (I've made it before and he gobbled it right up). Well last night was "one of those nights" where something he's eaten and enjoyed before went untouched. Ok I take that back, he took a few bites but was done shortly there after. He did enjoy his biscuit though. We had leftover soup for lunch today and of course, Wee-one LOVED it today. In fact he couldn't get enough soup...ha! No day is every dull around here :)! I'm happy he decided he like it again. So I would count this as a HIT :)!

Tonight's supper is Crock pot Meatloaf, baked potato and some sort of vegetable. I know Wee-one probably won't eat the meatloaf. He has never been a big ground beef eater. I do know the baked potato with ranch dressing will probably be his main meal tonight :). The kid LOVES potatoes. I think he loves ranch because I practically drank the stuff while pregnant with him...ha! Not sure what the vegetable is going to be yet but he probably won't eat that either. Of course he may surprise me and eat everything but the potato...who knows :)!

I went grocery shopping bright and early this a.m. Armed with my list and my $75.00 I headed out at around 8:30 a.m. I stuck to my list like glue. That is really the key in making a grocery budget work. Before we had our grocery budget I would buy TONS of extra which really racked up the bill. Nowadays if it's not on the list...I don't buy it! I had $1.29 to spare after buying everything on my list today. YIPPEEE for me :)!!!!

So here's the menu for next week. I'll post the recipes as I make them next week. Oh and I probably won't be posting on Sundays. Too much going on but I'll be back Monday afternoon for your reading enjoyment...ha!
