Menu Plan Monday

I trying something new this month. It's called once a month grocery shopping. Sounds a little overwhelming, but my hope is that if I can go to the grocery store once a month it will not only save me money (I inevitably spend 50-80$ every time I go in 'just for milk') but it will also save me time. And time right now is very important to me So I have made out my monthly meal plan, organized my grocery list and this past weekend headed to Costco and Giant Eagle in hopes of not returning til June!

I am also going to plan to complete 1-2 tasks in the evenings after Mia is in bed in hops of keep my ever feeling sense of overwhelmingness (is that a word?) at bay. I have added those to my menu in hopes that if I write it  down I will do it :)
So week one of the month of May looks like this:

Monday: Sizzling chicken and salad
      task: fold laundry and put away
      task: pay bills

Tuesday: Crock pot ranch pork chops, noodles, and brocoli
      task: organize coupons
      task: update blog from month of April

      No task-watch Modern Family

Thursday: Tacos and Avacado, corn and black bean salad
      task: vacuum living room, sweep and mop kitchen

Friday: grilled chicken, grilled baked potatoes, and corn on the cob
     No task-might go to Creekside to feed the ducks

Saturday: Drew Cotter's Birthday party!


I hope you all have a great week!
