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.
