Hello there!
I can't believe it's June already, can you? This year is really flying by!
Just checking in to let you know that I'm thinking of taking the summer off from menu planning! I've been so busy lately, and we are eating a lot of salads and grilling out most of our dinners.
I basically am grabbing chicken or steak or burgers from the freezer, grilling them, and making a side salad to go with it. Not much planning involved!
I also have discovered a little local shop that carries fresh berries of all kinds, and produce of all kinds. Their prices are amazing! Blackberries are 2 containers for $1.00, same for raspberries. A large container of blueberries is $1.00, and they are all name brand, same as at Kroger or Meijer. I buy Dole mixed salad bags for $1.00 - the kind that comes with cheese and salad dressing! Amazing! So I stock up on fruits and veggies there, and we're eating a ton of fresh delicious fruit.
I have so many things going on this summer, taking the youngest grand to all her practices and activities. That keeps me busy in itself, plus we have a couple short trips planned. I'm trying to get my housework and sewing done in between running her back and forth, and by the end of the day I'm exhausted.
So....I'm having trouble making time for planning meals and grocery shopping. It's pretty hit or miss at this point.
I hope you all have a great summer, and I'll probably be back in August when school starts and I get back into my normal routine. Until then, stay safe and take care!
Hugs,
