Have you noticed I haven’t posted my meal plan the last two weeks? We were out of town on our planning retreat and then last week my husband was in Haiti. So, last week I didn’t fool with making big meals since it was just me and the kids.
If you haven’t heard, my area has severe flooding, in Middle Tennessee. It is like nothing I have ever seen. There are boats in place of cars on the roads, many grocery stores are out of essentials and there are curfews. Seeing what is happening in our community has made me so thankful for having a stockpile of food and supplies we can donate to the shelters. It has been a blessing to be able to eat out of our pantry and freezer and not worry about that aspect of all this.
So, while I will post below my tentative plans for food, this week is up for grabs.
