We have been having such a wonderful, and super busy summer
I haven’t been able to meal plan at all.
I admit, it’s driving this OCD-detail oriented gal a little crazy! We
have had a lot of nights of sandwiches, mac n cheese, and take out on the way
home. Sometimes it’s just what you have to do. I am ready to get back on track
though. It’s time to get some meals on the table again.
One other thing that was slowing me down was a growing
frustration with the various tastebuds I am working with. I have had to change
my thinking and remind myself (and my children) that you don’t have to love every meal. Sometimes it’s okay to
just like a meal, or be okay with eating something that’s not your favorite but
it’s still better than nothing. I try super hard to pick recipes that are within
our tastes and interests, but as every homecook knows, sometimes it’s a
miss. I feel it’s important my kids
understand this important message.
That being said, I have tried to include some family
favorites in our menu this week. I also have a chicken dinner from pinterest
that I’m interested to try.
