Happy Monday evening…OK, technically it is Tuesday morning. I just had to post that I was actually able to plan out another week and get to the store before Sunday night. It’s so very nice to have the little chalkboard in the kitchen with all the meals for the week on it. Let’s see [...]

It’s Friday. And I stuck to the meal plan. I did. Can you believe it? We’ll see what happens next week… There were a couple of things on the plan that I haven’t ever shared before, so I thought I’d add them. This is one of my husband’s favorite dinners: pot roast. Lucky for me [...]
Meal Planning…and my love-hate for it

Are you a meal planner? Is your grocery list organized by store aisle? Do you even make a grocery list? Do you already know what you are going to have for dinner this Thursday night? I have dreams in which breakfast, lunch and dinner are all planned for 7 days at a time. In which [...]

So recently we had some experiments going in our household…and they each pertain to The Table in their own way. First, we had a week that was kind of busy and I couldn’t seem to get myself organized enough to get to the store with any kind of meaningful grocery list. It made me think [...]
Weekend meal time examined…

So, I’m always kind of thinking about meal-time in one way or another. Are we out of (fill in the blank)? Did I remember to lay the chicken out to defrost? If I Twitter for another 20 minutes, will I still have dinner ready when my husband gets home from work? The weekends are usually [...]
