This nearly didn’t happen. I have had a horrible week, mentally. Couldn’t get it together at all. I have consistently been writing up the plan on Tuesday or Wednesday, compiling the shopping list and then shopping on Thurday or Friday.

I don’t know whether it was the heat or various stuff going on at home, but I wasn’t able to get my act together this week at all. My meal plan goes from Friday to Thursday. I was able to cobble together things for us to eat on Friday and Saturday (we went out for lunch Saturday) and ended up writing the plan and list on Saturday afternoon, and shopping after the children went to sleep on Saturday night.

Now I am back on track! Was difficult, I am glad I was able to pull it back.

Amazing to think we have made it this far! Have already made a couple of small changes based on the lunch we had on Friday, which ended up being mini meatloaves from the freezer. Didn’t think we would cope with 3 mince burgery things in a row, so moved chevapi to Sunday.
