What's For Supper, Mama?

I had a request to share our menu plans more often but I did not get to it as planned. Sorry! :) So here I am today to give a few ideas. Here is what we had this week.

MONDAY
Roasted chicken (from the grocery store deli)
rice with gravy
sliced cucumber
biscuits

TUESDAY
Mexican chicken casserole....made from the leftover chicken
(this was a new recipe I tried from the internet - we hated it, it was awful! LOL but I am going to use the sauce part of the recipe to make a whole new recipe - I'll let you know how that goes!)

WEDNESDAY
tater tot casserole (different from the Duggar version)
fresh peas
macaroni and cheese
sliced tomatoes

THURSDAY
Wasn't what I had planned but was by special request from The GuitarMan

fried chicken (1/2 buffalo wings 1/2 fried chicken legs)
french fries

FRIDAY
(Here again, not what I had planned but we need to eat them up and my girls are going to a special Girls Night for K-6th at a church in another town so no time to cook...they are so excited!)

leftovers from this week

SATURDAY
cottage prayer meeting so we will have fellowship there

SUNDAY
I have a ham thawing now!

Next week is VBS every night so soon I will share what we do for easy suppers. I think we all need ideas for those! It is so easy to think we don't have time to cook or sit down together to share a family meal. Sometimes that really is the case but often times it is just that we are too tired and distracted/overwhelmed to deal with it. It helps to have something planned especially if you have a headstart on it. So I will address that topic a little further when I share next week's menu. :)

The Season of Pregnancy (updated)

I know. I have been neglecting this blog. Horribly. That's not the only thing that has been thrown by the wayside lately! It is only for a season though. Pregnancy means you must be patient with yourself and accept that sometimes you must let things slide. That also means that you have to plan in order to conserve your energy. I know if I am going somewhere later today then I don't need to rush around and try to get a lot done in the morning. Priorities must be in order. Although the morning sickness is better it isn't totally gone at this point. Whoever named it that anyway? The main thing I have been dealing with is fatigue. My blog shows it. My laundry shows it. My house shows it. Ack, everywhere shows it! I simply do not have the energy to do the bending up and down required to truly clean up, do laundry, and the vacuuming/sweeping etc. It's quite depressing actually! So I do a little here, do a little there. I manage the necessities such as homeschooling, cooking, ...

Latest on GuitarMan

I haven't made a practice of sharing photos with a full facial view on here. However the GuitarMan isn't too worried about that LOL! With many of you praying for him I thought you might like to have an idea of who he is. He is still in a lot of pain. His fingers are all black and blue and his entire hand is swollen. His hand is cut straight across his fingers and across the bottom of his hand. Once again, very obvious what could have happened. He's blown away by everyone caring and checking in him and the prayers on his behalf. He says to thank you all!

Baby Steps

Hope you've had a good day today. We have been having some lovely autumn weather at our house! Yet I still have the urge to get the Christmas decorations out. Normally I am one of those people who likes to get Thanksgiving completed before moving on into the Christmas festivities. But there is just something about this year that has me ready to get all of the holidays going and squeeze out all the wonder. So my house now has icicle lights hung 3/4 of the way across the front. It's a small start but still an official start! I can't wait for the holiday cooking shows on Food network and the Christmas romantic comedy movies to begin. We also did a little rearranging today along with some cleaning out. I am going through the children's things and doing away with broken toys or the things that just don't interest them. I still have a ways to go until I can check "satisfied" or "completed" on my mental list. But still, like the Christmas lights, I can ...
