August 2012 Monthly Meal Plan

Summer is a time for rest and relaxation, a time when one should not be constrained by the boundaries of a monthly meal plan, right?  Well, that's what we were thinking, anyhow.  We figured that we would try planning weekly meals, but when it came time to shop, we didn't have a … [Read more...]

May 2012 Monthly Meal Plan

Our monthly meal plan is a staple of our budgeting process.  We look at it this way.  We are planning meals one way or the other.  We can do it on the fly, trying to figure out each day what we are going to feed our kids; we can plan week to week, spending the time planning while … [Read more...]

April 2012 Monthly Meal Plan

We are so very happy to be back to our normal meal plans.  Our little experiment went very well with both of us losing a fair amount of weight, but the draw of meat and the need to feed our kids healthy food that they will actually eat just became too much.  We did learn quite a … [Read more...]
