A Place For Every-Thing!

It has seriously been way too long since my last Menu Plan Monday and I can honestly say that my family and I have really missed having our menus already planned. Let me explain a little.... First my children had were gone most of July, visiting grandparents and other family, so it was just me and the hubby and I GOT LAZY. My home was so quiet, no kids asking for me to cook, clean, read, watch, listen, or fix anything. I am not complaining, I love being a mother, but a break every once in a while is welcomed. But my break was a little too long, me and Bernard began picking up food from here and there, I wasnt needing to clean-up as much since it was just us two. Well with the eating out came a high price tag and we spent way more than we should have on take out, and junk food. So now its time I buckle down and get back on track.
