Menu Plan Monday, Jan. 3, 2011 & (Weird Holidays?)


















CONFESSION-
I'm SOOOOO bored with menus,
food and cooking. Inspiration was needed.
So... I planned meals around National "Holidays"
and other interesting (but often not terribly important)
facts. Turns out, I've printed coloring sheets for my
little ones & made some homeschool lessons plans
that will coinside with the food we're eating.
Strange, but somehow it turned into the motivation
I so desperately needed.   Have fun!

What insight! I would have never thought to plan meals around holidays. I will be passing this along to my daughter for menu planning. My greatest dilemna (it's just the two of us now) is what kind of cereal are we having for dinner...ha ha!
