It is Monday again, which means it is time for me to make my weekly menu. The fact that I won't be going shopping until Wednesday this week, is immaterial, as I still have to know what I plan to make.
So, here is last week's menu (all were LDL legal):
Tuesday: Cottage Pie
Wednesday: Taco Soup
Thursday: Chicken & Sweet Corn Chowder
Friday: Balsamic Oven Roasted Chicken
Corn
Green Beans
Saturday: Tacos
Sunday: Ground Turkey Burgers on Corn Thins
Baked Seasoned Cauliflower
Corn
Green Beans
Monday: Sweet and Sour Meatball (Pitas for rest of family)
Steamed Cauliflower, corn, green beans (for me)
Tortilla Chips and Salsa (for rest of family)
I was so pleased with the Sweet and Sour Meatballs! There is a recipe on the Let's Do Lunch website for Tangy BBQ Sauce. Well, I don't like mine very tangy so I substituted pineapple juice for the lemon juice and it was delicious.
Tonight is my online conference with Cindy Rushton! I'm so glad that I was able to subscribe to this! I have really enjoyed it. I won't say that I've learned a LOT from it, as I have been homeschooling for 11 years now, but it has definitely been encouraging and given me some good info that I will be able to share with new homeschoolers.
I'd love it if some of you would send me comments. I was surprised that nobody did when I put up the new avatar or when I put up our libraries through Library Thing.
Oh, I did want to tell you about two neat websites. The first one gives away a free computer utility of some sort each day. Find them at Giveawayoftheday.com. The other one is affiliated with this one. They give away a free full version game each day, or almost each day. You can find them at game.giveawayoftheday.com. I do warn you though, some of them can become addictive. I like to play them to keep my mind sharp and while I relax/unwind in the evening.
I better run . . . I've got more things to do before my chat tonight, one of which is update our school librarything.
(Me and my dd, Tiffany on an easy to climb tree limb on vacation in VA in 2007.) These are my ramblings on homeschooling and whatever else comes to mind.
Counting Down
The Holidays are over and I'm not quite ready to start a new count down yet. Maybe I should start a counting up the number of days I've stayed on my "diet".
