Mommom

Lately I have been attempting to plan my meals in advance. The goal would be that I don’t panic at 5:00 when I realize I don’t know what I am going to make for dinner. So Sunday morning I take some time to plan out the weeks meals and my grocery list. This week has… Read More What’s for Dinner?
