Menu Plan Monday 6/15




I should probably change the name of this post since things at our house are kind of a mess but the good news is that my husband has connected the microwave and double oven at the new house.  I think that the stove is coming soon but I can't be sure.  Hopefully the dishwasher won't be long after it!!  We have been hard at work and I moved almost all of the kitchen stuff over to the new house and unpacked it in the cabinets.  I can only do about 3-5 boxes before I get overwhelmed with the process so I start unpacking things and putting them on the counter.  The great news is that this helps me think about how to rearrange everything again to try to fit them in the remaining spaces.  I am making great progress but I am almost positive that there are still some missing boxes somewhere in the house.

Sadly my son is sick and we are now in a holding pattern until he gets a little better.  I was supposed to get to the store and get a few more things done but instead we are staying home from school which is double sad because it is his last week of school.  I have moved most of the food to the new house so we are going to have an interesting time making due if we don't get over there soon but here is our plan for the week. I might have to move around the days based on my sick little man but we will be close to this.

Monday- Nachos or Enchiladas with saffron rice
Tuesday- Spaghetti with garlic bread
Wednesday- French Dip Sloppy Joes with chicken rice
Thursday- Chicken Nugget Wraps with homemade fries 
Friday- Leftovers or Take out after pool
Saturday- Salsa Sloppy Joes with mac and cheese
Sunday- Leftovers

  1. Hope your little one is better soon. Good luck with the moving plans. Amazing that you still have a menu plan during a move! I would tend to let chaos take over a bit!

    1. I am totally in the middle of chaos but I just have to make sure that I have food at which ever house we are at to eat that night and we aren't sitting at the house without the food. We ended up with spaghetti last night because I didn't have time to make the enchilada sauce and I used all of the ones that I had frozen so things are a little up in the air but hoping that I can figure out where everything is and get through the week probably with a little takeout!!

  2. Sorry Alison, I'm just now finding a little bit of time to check up on my favorite bloggers :) I hope your son has gotten better since the post and that you're finding room for everything at the new house! Remember you'll be there for a long time so there's no rush to get everything unpacked at once, especially if you're still getting the kitchen furnished anyway. (This is the reasonable me saying this. The real me would want everything out of boxes and put away in 5 minutes, hahaha!). Enjoy your new house!

    1. We are all slowly on the mend and feeling better. I would love to say that I am patient but I am horrible with unpacking and trying to get settled. The basement is currently filled with boxes but I was unpacking boxes and bringing them back to fill them for the next day so it was a process. It is hard when you move slowly because it can get overwhelming quickly. We have almost everything over at the new house except some furniture and clothes. All the dishes, food, and millions and millions of other boxes are all here. We are just working on repainting everything to start setting stuff up room by room. I hope to get some more patience :)
