Menu Plan Monday is here again! My cute sister in law is in town this week so I made sure to put a few things that she likes on my menu. Also, my birthday is this week so we will be going out to dinner on Saturday night for that. I am happy because really my menu this week is using up mostly things I already have. Most of my budget this week will be for stocking up on a few things that are priced well to put in my fridge / storage for later. I cannot tell you how excited it gets me to know that I can actually make things with the things I have stored. They are items that I use and will use. Such a great system! Buy things when they are rock bottom prices...store them and then you never have to buys things at full price. Anyways, on to the menu.
