Menu Planner Tuesday

This week is a light menu. We have a very busy weekend so we will be eating out or I'll pull something from the freezer.

Yesterday was my grocery shopping day but when I got in the car it wouldn't start. Apparently the 100+ temperatures the past few weeks took it's tole on our not so new battery. I planned on making Crock Pot Macaroni and Cheese and 7 Layer Salad for our Body Life group but had to improvise and use what I had in the cabinet. It all turned out well in the end. I got a lot accomplished around the house while stranded at home and Phillip was able to get off a bit early to buy a new battery and install it. So my small grocery list is cut even smaller. Woo hoo for eating what's on hand and saving a bit of money! :)

Tuesday- Grilled Hamburgers, Romain and Carrot Slaw (This is a new recipe, I'll let you know if it's a keeper), Baked Sweet Potato Fries

Wednesday- Creamy Tomato and Spinach Fettuccine (Another new recipe), Cauliflower

Thursday- Left Overs

My battery died too last Thursday! I went to Beeville to a Drs appointment, went to HEB then Walmart. Came home and stopped in Grandad and Grandma's carport. Took in their groceries, came out and my battery was dead! So very thankful that it died there and not in Beeville in the hot sun away from home! We found out that car batteries are not cheap.
