I have really enjoy this 4 day break. One of the main things that has happened is that I am finally caught up.\u00a0 This upcoming week is a relativity slow one for us. Cheerleading is on vacation, so the kids have swim team practice each day and piano on Friday. My work is also slowing down as everyone (all 3 of us) are working this week a regular schedule so I should be able to get home early most days. As I posted earlier, we are growing the stockpile which means lots to choose from when menu planning.<\/p>\n
Breakfast<\/strong>-Cereal,\u00a0Poptarts, grits, toast and breakfast burritos at least one day.<\/p>\n Lunch- <\/strong>Salad (lettuce is already prepared, tomato and cucumbers from garden), sandwiches, hot dogs or left-overs. I am really encouraging Matt and the kids to eat sandwiches or left overs this week so that we can not waste any food.<\/p>\n Dinner<\/strong>–\u00a0The exciting news here is that I should be able to eat most night with everyone prior to swim practice! First time all summer.<\/p>\n Saturday- Lunch:\u00a0Potato salad, Mandarin salad, pasta salad,\u00a0watermelon. \u00a0 Dinner- Potluck at the pool.<\/p>\n Sunday- Lunch-\u00a0Leftovers from the week including Chinese, steak or salads\u00a0from yesterday. \u00a0Dinner-\u00a0Pimento cheese and bacon sandwich on sour dough bread.<\/p>\n Monday-\u00a0Grilled chicken, sides will be leftovers from the weekend. With our garden in full production, the goal is to freeze a small amount each day, eat as much as we want for lunches and not waste any food!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I have really enjoy this 4 day break.
