So many of us are trying to do weekly meal planning- to save time and money and keep our sanity each evening. This year I've started to do my meal plans two weeks at a time. I've found it (so far) to be even more efficient. Oh sure, there are frequently nights that I end up having a meeting and not being home for dinner. (All of my JL meetings this term seem to be planned very last minute for whatever reason....argh) And I might need to run to the store at the mid point to pick up more milk or fresh veggies. But I have a two week plan and that is just such a stress reliever for me. More than a week ago I made a turkey breast in the crockpot with sweet potatoes and onions. Ate that for a night or two and then used leftover turkey for enchiladas. Ate those for two nights (I shared- don't go thinking I ate a pan of enchiladas by myself in two little meals) and froze the rest of the meat until last night. When I made my favorite black bean soup with turkey. Half a bird cooked once in the crockpot fed me, family and friends for a week and half. It's all about the two week plan! OCD? Perhaps. But I have my sanity. And that my dear friends, is priceless!

Oh I am making the sweetest little prezzie for my Godson. Pictures to come tomorrow. Promise!
