Working 3 nights/week has put a bit of a crimp in our suppers but we are adjusting. This coming up weekend is my annual Scrap Pink fundraiser & I will be gone from 7am Saturday until 7ish pm Sunday so absolutely no meal planning or prep from me during those times.

I have learned I am much more efficient w/my time now that I am busier.  I am a bad procrastinator when I know I have all evening to get something done & then usually still don't do it ;)  I am better @ keeping up w/laundry & the baking & general house keeping w/the part time evening jobs than w/out them. What a happy surprise!

So, what's on your menu this week?
