Menu Plan Monday – February 8th

by Birdie on February 8, 2010

Ok. First I have to admit I didn’t follow all of my plans for last week, but I did ok. We had three of the five meals I had planned so you will see some repeats today. An ongoing struggle right? Accountability through the Internet and all that! So now on to this week’s menu!
Monday: Spaghetti and garlic bread
Tuesday: Leftovers
Wednesday: Chicken Alfredo, bread, peas
Thursday: Breakfast casserole and fruit
Friday: Leftovers
Somewhere in there I’m probably also going to make that perfect pound cake I mentioned last week.

My son just turned two and I’m really excited about setting up a home school curriculum for him and his little brother. I’m not going to officially start until he turns three, but we already read regularly and work on letters, numbers, colors, and shapes. As a matter of fact, he can say almost all of his ABCs already and identify random letters! (I know all parents think their children are gifted but he is!) Anywho. I’m going to be reviewing curriculum this year, getting supplies, reading books, and setting up our classroom this year so that in January we are all ready to go. I’ve just started reading Homeschooling for Idiots, and I’ll post a review of it once I have finished. I’ll be using Fridays to talk about resources, books, plans, websites, and everything else I have found relating to our homeschooling adventure. If you know of anything I should be checking out, please let me know!

Why am I a WAHM?

February 3, 2010

From the time I was about fourteen I’ve had a job of some sort. Before that I often had chores or little things that I did around the neighborhood, but by fourteen I was earning a check. I did that until I was thirty, I’m now thirty-two. My husband and I had agreed when we [...]

Menu Plan Monday – February 1st

February 1, 2010

So excited to be restarting my blog with something useful! Hopefully, this will help me stay on track and encourage me to cook more regularly and eat out less often. Hubby and I both need to do this as it is healthier and more cost efficient…and usually yummier. I’m especially excited because I’m going to [...]
