Perpetual Meal Plans

I made these up for last year but they have worked so well that we are keeping them around… I can spend less time meal planning and devote more time to other things that need my attention.

Here they are, all in one place:

Perpetual Meal Plan Spring

Perpetual Meal Plan Summer

Perpetual Meal Plan Fall

Perpetual Meal Plan Winter

The links should take you to each post where you can print out the meal plan.

Hope this helps!

Solar Eclipse Party Ideas

Whoa! It feels like this year is flying by!

Sausage Balls

A friend of mine surprised one day by making these… I didn’t know he could cook and these were so good! He gave me the recipe and they are so easy to make!

The kids can pretty much make this recipe by themselves with a little help when it comes to the oven! I’ll try to remember to snap a picture of these the next time we make them.
