We’ve been flying by the seat of our pants (did your Mom and Grandma use that expression when you were a kid too?) lately when it comes to menu planning. It feels good to get things organized again and make a weekly meal plan.
We save so much money and so much time by having a plan in place ahead of time. These days we have to be a bit more flexible with it because of some out of stock items, but we’re mostly finding everything we need.
We’ve also stocked up a bit so that we have enough on hand to be able to plan out the following week, rather than waiting to see what comes and what might not.
The weather has been so much nicer here so we’re hoping to get a new tank of propane and starting grilling again too! That and some fresh local produce available always lets me know that summer is truly here.
