Menu Planning

Husband and I signed up for a fitness contest at work. The person who loses the highest percentage of body weight wins the money (sign up money and 1$ per pound for each person who gains weight). This has been a motivator for both of us to get more active.


I made fried catfish last night. I love to fry foods. It's such a rare occasion and a nice treat. And honestly, I'm good at frying stuff. It was Ivy's first taste of fish and of course didn't like it at first. But she finished her meal. We're trying to have her eat table food but we eat later than she does and what we have is usually not something you'd feed a toddler. And we don't purchase foods that a toddler would normally eat.


The status of our bank account has given me more motivation to reign it in when it comes to eating out. This past week has been so hectic. Food was the last thing on my mind.

This week... some changes.

Here is my Menu Plan Monday. Totally don't want to plan what goes where. Just that we know these are our options.
1. Sandwiches - Been watching a lot of the Cosby Show and Doc Hux eats a lot of hoagies. Was inspired.
2. Hot links - on bread with chips
3. Pizza
4. Chicken - apparently we aren't being specific with how we're making it; but I want to do something with the crock pot.
5. Nachos
Days 6 & 7 are leftovers
