Oh hi there. I knew there was something I forgot to do this week. DERP.
Anyways, this week has been uber-busy with apartment hunting (found a place!), lice-checking the kids, pre-move decluttering, catching up with besties and getting ready for my little lady’s big 0-4 birthday. I’m not sure how I managed to get this far without a menu plan, but I guess every once in awhile even the awesomest (not a word) of homemakers fudge things up. This is my week. With all the chaos I’m pretty sure we’ve eaten greasy, gross road food more times than I realize. Whoops.
(FYI: This is NOT what I originally had planned for meals this week. The following is what happens when I wing it and fly by the seat of my pants. Proof that menu planning is effective when properly executed!)
Breakfasts: pancakes, quick oats, eggs & toast, fresh fruit
Lunches: greasy, gross road food (aka hot dogs, McDonalds, Dunkin Donuts, more hot dogs, more Dunkin Donuts), whatever else we can grab on the run.
Snacks: fresh fruit and veggies, veggie straws, goldfish crackers, gingerbread cookies, spinach smoothies
Dinner:
- scrambled eggs
- toast
- raw red pepper strips
- takeout – Chinese (guilty pleasure: loooooove.)
- pasta with butter and parmesan
- raw pepper strips and carrot sticks
- experimental cauliflower crust veggie pizza (not sure where we went wrong, but this was a big ol’ soggy crusted FAIL)
- turkey-oat meatball subs
- salad
- pasta with butter and parmesan
- green beans
- homemade pizza
- salad
- Dinner at my Gramma’s
Ginger(ly) Homemaking 
Reading “homemade pizza” made me want to scratch my plans for tomorrow and drive to your house for Emma’s bday dinner. Nomnomnomnom.
Happy bday Emma!!!! Can’t believe your the big 0-4!!!
Ha! That’s one helluva long drive for pizza.
Did you ever think these kids of ours would grow at such warp speeds?! It’s unreal. I feel like Emma was Jax’s age ten million years ago. She’s such an old fart now.
