I've been revisiting LITTLE WOMEN (yet again) so it's fresh on my mind. This time I'm using up some subscription credits from my audible account and listening to the unabridged version while I putter around the house. I do relate about the menu plan being ignored on occasion. I used to get so frustrated until I decided to just plan five or six meals and not assign days to them. This works well for us and I've learned to just let go and pop what I can into freezer (or serve it the next evening) should Mike suddenly decide we need to have a date at our favorite Mexican Restaurant. Who am I to argue...haha! Or, today he had a craving for barbecued ribs and came home from the store with a small packet to grill up! I just put the Calico chile in the 'frig and he took over the rib cooking. Meanwhile, I popped some potatoes in the little oven to bake, then tossed together a lettuce, tomato and cucumber salad and that was supper! It was delicious and very easy.<br /> I'm off now to relax and do some reading. <br />Love,<br />Tracey<br />xox Tracey McBride ~ Frugal Luxuries®https://www.blogger.com/profile/03043055986653442733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6959918163454225829.post-34757572072372918152017-05-02T01:36:40.660-04:002017-05-02T01:36:40.660-04:00So happy for you that family day was so lovely!
