Menu Plan - Worksheet

It is my goal for 2016 to cook a little more at home.  Use things up before they look like a science project that somehow made it to my fridge.  So I am keeping this basic log of what we had and it could actually help me in future years, too.  We seem to have the same holiday meals every year.  Apparently, this is a requirement at my house.  So some of the post holiday meal leftovers will probably be the same.  Gosh, I hope I don't get too bored doing this.  We'll see.  I created this blog for my own and possibly for the interested family members who wanted my recipes.  But anyone is welcome.  It is not fancy, but if it helps, I say, "Go for it!"  Sometimes we have lunch, and sometimes not.  (I am a bad mom).  On the weekends, we go camping in the summer and often have breakfast, but then usually don't have lunch.  And we are actually more likely to have "breakfast" for dinner.  Who knows, I might actually save a few bucks this way, too.  We'll see.  (Be prepared for lots of take out meals though.  My family loves Steak 'n' Shake and our hometown non-chain pizzas from Tobin's, Grady's and Beningo's.)
