Menu Plan Monday ~

Doing this with others motivates me...which in turn helps organize my life, which is helpful now that I have a part-time job outside the home...menu planning saves me money....and means we eat healthier when I plan....and makes me wander around the food fun of the web for a couple new meals to eat, keeping out meal anything but boring.  Heck...as if good food could be boring.  :)

If I get any pictures, I'll back track and add recipe links to the menu list as the week goes on.
