Menu and Stuff

I'm sorry for neglecting this blog. That's probably how I start every discussion post in here... but I do have a few other blog projects that I work on out here in cyber-land, so I stay pretty busy. Blogs and homeschooling are enough to keep a mom on her toes. If you want to visit me elsewhere on the net, you can stop by my busy personal blog (updated daily) or my group blog (updated daily by 15 great homeschool moms).

I have a stack of recipes on my desk waiting to be typed up to go in here... but I just haven't had the time to sit down and play secretary. In the mean time, I figured I would make a little more effort in keeping this blog updated at least on a weekly basis.

So here is my menu plan for this week at our house:
