Greetings!
Last week had an unexpected situation come up which turned life into chaos. Thankfully I had done enough prep that we were able to eat home cooked meals. I will be honest with you, we hit a fast food chain for a greasy burger (sans the bun for me) and milk shakes on Thursday. It is not very often that those things are consumed around here, but in the moment it was a needed change of pace and in a way, it was comforting and I enjoyed it!
As a result of the crazy week, I am not as organized as usual for the upcoming week. I am still trying to regroup and planning a menu just wasn’t happening when I sat down to work on it…I tried multiple times! So I am kind of winging it this week. I took a quick look at what is on hand and made a run to the store. I picked up the basics…lettuce, beets, broccoli, zucchini, olives, bacon, coffee, onions, garlic, cherry tomatoes, avocados, pork chops, and some fruit. I already had cauliflower, carrots and cabbage, as well as some protein in the freezer. Also, I stewed a chicken last Sunday but never finished making into soup, I will do something with…just not sure what yet!! These items should get us through most of the week. If I have to make a quick run to the store later in the week, so be it. Sometimes you just have to roll with it!!
Have a great week!
