It is very helpful - especially after work when cooking does not sound appealing!Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17236722352340353272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9181016646421240420.post-65659590151988848162009-08-28T12:19:22.744-05:002009-08-28T12:19:22.744-05:00I tried the meal planning thing last month.

However it took us 3 weeks to eat the 9 meals because things kept coming up and we'd either eat at someone else's house or grab dinner on the way to wherever we were going. It was definitely nice though being able to look at my list to see what hadn't been cooked yet and then just prepare it instead of standing at the freezer door wondering what to make! :)<br /><br />I'm going to try and make your chalkboard thing for my kitchen this weekend, wish me luck!Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10804071875411766159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9181016646421240420.post-87784634954615374632009-08-28T11:11:00.990-05:002009-08-28T11:11:00.990-05:00You are totally going to be Martha Stewart this we...You are totally going to be Martha Stewart this weekend! <br /><br />My only meal planning advice is that it is SO important to be flexible--for us, if I planned to make lasagna on a Sunday, but then we were invited over to a family dinner, I'm not going to turn down the invite just because my meal plan says "Lasagna". Forget that, I'll make Lasagna the next night. <br /><br />Or if we're really craving burritos, but it's spaghetti night...we already have the ground beef, and tomato sauce/ dry noodles will keep until the next time we're going to make spaghetti! Bring on the burritos! If there wasn't that flexibility, it just wouldn't work for us...that's just my two cents!Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08257863829848728846noreply@blogger.com
