Weekly Menu Plan 2-21-27, 2021

 



We are heading into the last full week of February!  YAY!!  I am so ready for spring!  Aren't you?  Today, the temps finally got above freezing, and I see some of the snow melting on my patio.  All week long it is supposed to be above freezing, and I am hoping by the end of the week we will see grass again, hear the birds again, and be ready for March to come in like a lamb.  Fingers crossed.

I have hit the February "sick of cooking and sick of being inside" wall.  I am trying to stay motivated, but seriously, I would be happy to go out to eat for every meal and just sit in my chair at home and watch Call The Midwife.  I'm even sick of sewing.  That is some SERIOUS wall hitting for me!  I think I just have the winter blahs.  If it stays sunny this week, a few short walks outside will bring me around, I think.  Or maybe I just need a nice big old shopping trip.  Something fun!

This week, menu planning was not easy for me.  Not too much was sounding good, except junk food.  Just the opposite of what I need to be eating!  So it's heavy on the desserts, friends.  And a little heavy on the comfort breakfast foods.  I seem to be craving yummy breakfasts lately.  On the other hand, I am also craving salads!  I can't wait for the weather to warm up a bit, and start eating lighter!  That always perks me up!

Here is this week's menu.

So there you are, some ideas for the last week of February!  I hope you are all staying warm, staying safe, and shaking off those winter blahs!  Have a great week, and I hope you find something here that you want to try!  See you next week!

Weekly Menu Plan 2-14 to 2-20, 2021

 

What a hunka snow, right??  We are in the midst of a snowstorm right now, and this guy just made me laugh!  I would love to build one just like it in the middle of my yard!

Seriously, though, you won't catch me outside in the cold and snow!  Nope, I'm staying inside where it's warm, dry, and cozy.  My knitting basket is right next to my chair, my soaps are on, and if I get tired of knitting I always have my sewing.  Inside is where I want to be!

Sorry I'm a day late posting this again.  Yesterday, Valentine's Day, was also my granddaughter's birthday, so we had some celebrating to do.  I think she had a pretty fun birthday!

Here is what's cooking in my kitchen this week.

I think almost everything is gluten free, or can be made gluten free by using gluten free pasta.  I used the abbreviation GF for all gluten free items this week, because that's the only way I could get it to fit on this cute postcard!  
I hope you have a wonderful week!  Stay warm, hunker down, and enjoy meals with your family!  See you next week!

Weekly Menu Plan Feb 7-13, 2021

 

It's almost Valentine's Day!  At my house, that means a birthday is coming!  Our youngest granddaughter's birthday is on Valentine's Day, so valentines take a back seat to birthday cards!

It has been super cold, and snow is in the forecast every day for the next week.  I am hoping this is it, then it starts to warm up!  I'm getting tired of going out in these cold mornings!

This week's menu plan is not too difficult, sorry I am a day late in posting it.  I had family dropping by all weekend long, and the time got away from me.  Better late than never, right??

Oops!  I almost forgot!  If you would like a pdf version of the menu plan, please click:
