Today was my anniversary, so again I'm running behind. I don't think there has been a Monday within the past two months that I haven't been running behind. The kids did go back to school today and I took a lazy day. No cleaning, no cooking, NOTHING, but run after my toddler and chasing him down from the kitchen table.

Now that the holidays are over I really am sort of sick of rich fair. I'm already craving the fruits of the summer season along with the light dishes. Luckily I went on a freezing binge this past year. I have lots of okra, corn etc. I can't wait until this spring/summer when I teach myself to can. Should be an experience. Who knew that the once pampered princess would turn frugal homemaker? If you would have told me this 4 years ago I would have laughed myself until I peed a little. 

Monday- Slow cooked great northern beans seasoned with left over Christmas ham and corn bread.

Tuesday- Baked spaghetti, salad, and garlic bread twist

Wednesday- Finger foods to bring in the New Year with the family

Thursday- Oven fried pork chops, black eyed peas, and sauteed cabbage, with Mexican corn bread (standard southern New Years day meal)

Friday- Salads with oven baked chicken tenders (think Zaxby's Zalads)

Saturday- Using the kids free pizza coupons from the schools book-it reward and ordering from Pizza Hut

Sunday- California Burritos

Menu Monday

I'm a little late on this. Been a long day of errands. Would have probably only taken me no more than an hour or so on a normal day but with the kids out for Christmas break, I had a little more to tow. Not that we didn't make it fun. Or I should say as fun as we could. My errands weren't so interesting. First the day started with me feeding the kids and quickly heading out. I made sure to take all my medication before, but I forgot to feed myself. On the way to the Post office to get my refund from a stamp machine thief, I got the shakes, cold legs and fuzzy head...insulin injections and no breakfast or lunch doesn't really sit well on the body. You would think after YEARS and YEARS this would be embedded in my brain. With no glucose tabs or candy, I made a B-line for Burger King. Not the most healthy choice or the fastest, but it got the job done. Anyway, the rest of the day was about the same...I ventured into Walmart of all places to pick up prescriptions and few groceries. I really think I've lost my mind to even go near that place this week. By the time we arrived home this afternoon I was in NO mood to cook. Thank gosh I was smart enough to throw a sirloin roast in the crock pot this morning. So the house smelled wonderful and dinner was done when I walked through the door. Gotta love crock pots.

This weeks menu is basically request from my family, mainly from Mr. Kendra himself. Most of the time he doesn't care since he inhales most of my dishes with a vengeance...but every now and again he turns into Mr. Ubber Foodie and makes "wish list". As long as budget allows I'm happy to comply.

In lou of life changes and part of that is new routines and self help rules to make my days/weeks go by smoother, I've decided to post a little something each day. My girls over at Home Ec 101 are wonderful about making and helping with weekly menus. This is something I plan to keep up with as well.

• Monday- Taco soup
• Tuesday- Rubens and home fries
• Wednesday- C.O.R.N (clean out refrig night)

This is all if plans stay the same. My father is due back in Asheville Wednesday morning. Depending how his health, he may or may not be in surgery that afternoon. If so, Thanksgiving will be delayed until the weekend.
