I apologize yet again for the lack of posts lately. I'm thinking that whoever decided that Daylight savings time was a good idea didn't have a toddler! Boy it threw us all for a loop. Needless to say I was in bed by 9 last night. Wee-one was up at 4:40 a.m. this morning and then refused to nap at his usual time. It's been a crazy few days at our house that's for sure. Things seem to be getting better...knock on wood. We shall see how tomorrow morning goes :)!
I made a really really good supper on Saturday night. Wee-one ate it right up. It was crazy. He had three...yes three helpings! I'll post the recipe tomorrow along with the recipe we had tonight. It was good...Hubs and I liked it. Wee-one had a few bites and enjoyed the sausage that was in it. He had a one track mind though. I happened to mention "cookie" to "bribe" (yes we do bribe our child...to a degree) him inside to eat supper. Of course Wee-one remembers EVERYTHING so needless to say he took one bite of casserole and proceeded to ask for a cookie. I had him take one more bite and then got him one. This ended up working out quite well however because he did eat more casserole after his cookie was gone. SCORE ONE FOR MOMMY!!!
I got my menu finished this afternoon (finally) while Wee-one was not napping in his crib. He was hanging out so I got it done real quick. I went grocery shopping tonight with a budget of $62.00. I spend around $50.00 and the only thing I didn't buy that was on my list was Bay Leaves (I just couldn't justify spending $4.00 on a jar of bay leaves...yes I am the queen of cheap)! I got everything else so I'm pretty proud of myself.
Here is the menu for this week:
Monday
Potato & Sausage Casserole
Bread & Butter
Broccoli
Tuesday
Chicken Rice Dinner
Carrots
Wednesday

Thursday

Friday

So there you have it...this weeks menu. I'm trying out 3 new recipes, well 4 if you count tonight's. I love trying out new things and I hope they are delicious and wonderful...and most importantly WEE-ONE APPROVED :)!! Tomorrow afternoon...if Wee-one naps like he normally does, I'll post the successful recipe from this weekend and from tonight. Good night!
