Here are some things that happened this weekend:
- I finally started on Poppy’s baby book. She’s three and a half. It isn’t nearly as in-depth as it would’ve been if I’d started it, say, three years ago. Yay.
- Finances gave me a large, enduring headache. Boo.
- The guy at the discount grocery store couldn’t figure out how to use the register. So he gave us 20-something dollars worth of groceries for $10.73. That made the headache hurt a little less. Yay.
- We were home all weekend. Yay.
- And Rockford didn’t spend all that much time working. Yay.
- I rearranged the furniture in the living room. Well, I really did that last week. But I like it. So yay.
Because of the one gigantic and hideous blight on the weekend, we’re having yet another SuperCheapWhat’sInThePantry menu plan this week.
Monday: Pancakes & veggie sausages.
Poppy and Pete love Morningstar Farms’ veggie sausage links, so we usually have them on hand. And ever since I picked up a syrup dispenser a few months ago, I can’t stop making pancakes.
Tuesday: Butternut squash ravioli
I have nearly reached the end of my butternut squash ravioli tolerance, but Pi is still enjoying them and they’re made from a vegetable. So we’ll keep having them.
Wednesday: Spaghetti
Back-to-back pasta nights. Carboriffic.
Thursday: Fish sticks
There was a buy-one, get-one-free sale on giant bags of fish sticks this weekend. Suddenly, my freezer is awash in fish sticks.
I can totally empathize with number two. And although financial times are certainly better now that I have a job, it still seems like there’s always some place for the money to go…now it’s getting caught up on debt and bills. But I’m glad the rest of your weekend was good!! Hope you have a good week.
