Menu Plan - 3 Weeks!

We got some much needed time away from Topeka a few weeks ago. Chris has become an expert at building these:

Not bridges, but fire. He makes one in our fireplace whenever it's going to dip below 45 or so. Keeps us warm! I wonder if his cousin Jake showed him how? ;)
Well here goes THREE WEEKS worth of menu plans. Sounds nuts doesn't it?
Monday: Meatball Subs
Tuesday: Twice baked bacon potatos
Wednesday: Lentil sloppy joes
Thursday: Biscuits and gravy
Friday: Shihshkabobs (grilled by the hubs)
Saturday: Couples Conference, a.k.a. something DELICIOUS
Sunday: Chicken Fajitas
Monday: Meatloaf and mashed potatos
Tuesday: Lasagna, green salad
Wednesday: Chicken casesar salad (haven't cleared this with Chris...)
Thursday: BBQ Chicken Pizza
Friday: Pancakes and bacon (a la Chris)
Saturday: Leftovers
Sunday: Baby Shower!
Monday: Chili and cornbread
Tuesday: Southwest Chicken Salad
Wednesday: Roast and potatos, carrots
Thursday: Spaghetti and salad
Friday: French toast
Saturday: KU Game!
Sunday: Leftovers
Whew! That's a relief. Wish me luck!

Are you shopping for it all at once?

I have been contemplating going back to a every two week grocery shopping trip, instead of weekly. I can't decide though...

I did shop for it all at once! I usually grocery shop on Thursdays (that's when I get paid, and I usually have the day off), but I was out of juice this week :) That is a staple these days! So, I planned, and I went forth! I'm pretty sure that I'm going to have to restock produce in 7-10 days or so, since I'm almost through one of my romaine hearts.

I physically can't grocery shop every week. Emotionally either. It's too overwhelming! I would rather everything be on a rotating 2 week schedule. Laundry, dishes... haha.
