Wednesday and Thursday Week 2

I am getting a little behind in my blogging AHH!

Our breakfasts and lunches are often "catch as Catch can." I don't really mind being a short order cook for those meals but insist that we all eat the same dinner together.

Wednesday

Breakfast-oatmeal and fruit for all but one kids who had cereal!
snack- The showcase near us has free second run movies with a book report (good way to get the kids to read and write over the summer!) We hada B1GF1 free coupon for popcorn! YUMMY!

Lunch- No one was super hungry after popcorn but some hot dogs, turkey, carrots and fruit were all eaten by various members of our family

Dinner- A WONDERFUL SURPRISE. My 10 year old daughter decided to do it all herself. She made rice and chicken and even adapted the recipe for my DH who is lactose intolerant. She made frozen veggies (would have liked to use the fresh ones up but so be it!) and made Zuccinni bread BY HERSELF. Can you tell I am a proud Mom?


Thursday-

Breakfast was an assortment of french toast and cereal
Lunch was a mix of hot dogs, sandwiches etc and some of te frozen veggies from the night before.
Dinner was an edamane dish that was from an ALL YOU recipe a while back but we have tweaked it a bit. It was bacon, chicken, edamane and cabbage with a little garlic and soysauce.

Snack-popcorn



I have to confess that sticking to a budget these two weeks has been tough because of the great sales going on. It is hard to turn down buying lots of cheese for my stockpile when it is only .49 cents for 8 0z!
