Very Busy

We hardly ate anything off of last weeks menu. We have been over at the house cleaning, moving and sorting, sorting, sorting. So, I will not be posting any menus until next month. I will be so busy I won't be planning anything. I see a lot of sandwiches and salads in my future. LOL
Have a great couple of weeks and I'll see you back here after we are moved in and settled.

We bought a home!!!

Hi Everyone...

Not much going on in my life...NOT!! We have just purchased a park model in our RV park. I am very excited. No more stairs for this old bod to climb up and down. More room and actually real seperate rooms...LOL. Now I can send my husband to his room and shut the door...woo hoo. Lots of storage, more space, a covered patio and it came furnished. Love it. I can't wait to be able to really decorate something and change some furniture around. We will be moving (2 doors down) sometime at the end of the month. So, my next few weeks will be spent decluttering and throwing out stuff I do not intend to take with me. Finally something exciting happening in my life...LOL.

For those who care...here is the menu for the next week. Soon I will have a working oven and then look out...casseroles here I come...LOL.
