Meal Plan Monday




Here's a picture of Jon with homemade yogurt and frozen blueberries for a snack. He LOVED it!

I thought this would be neat to start after seeing it on another blog. I'm still not great about lunch planning so I'll skip that for now. We usually do either leftovers, some kind of sandwich or soup and bread.

Monday:
Breakfast: Oatmeal and homemade yogurt.
Dinner: Roast with carrots, onions and potatoes

Tuesday
Breakfast: Breakfast scramble and toast
Dinner: Macaroni helper with veggies

Wednesday
Breakfast: Oatmeal and homemade yogurt.
Dinner: Beef and noodles (with leftover roast) and mashed potatoes

Thursday
Breakfast: Eggs and toast
Dinner: Chicken, stuffing, veggies

Friday
Breakfast: Oatmeal and homemade yogurt.
Dinner:Homemade pizza and salad







Here's my dinner menu from last week:
Monday: Chili - made extra and froze half of it.
Tuesday: Baked spaghetti with meat and cheese
Wednesday: Grilled chicken, cheesy potatoes, and salad.
Thursday: Corn dogs and potato wedges
Friday: Pizza
Saturday: Wet burritos

I used the chicken carcass from Wednesday to make homemade soup for Friday's lunch. It was very yummy! I'm going to try to keep up more with posting recipes. Look out for yummy recipes and tips on how to make things like yogurt, kefir, etc...

My Adult Tonsillectomy Story

Post Surgery as soon as I arrived home. For anyone who really knows me, I have always been completely terrified of surgery.  So when I went to an ENT and he said I needed a tonsillectomy I was not very happy.  I found out in either January or February and I couldn't make my appointment till the end of June because that's when my husband could get off work to help out.  I wrote this so I could hopefully help someone going through the same thing.  Without further ado, here goes. Week Before Surgery: This is when I started purchasing everything I had seen online that might be helpful.  I also started setting up an area on the main floor where I could be inclined for sleeping and have everything at my finger tips.  At the bottom of this post I will have a list of items that I personally found helpful for my recovery.  I also have food allergies and tried to stay away from them as much as possible.  So my food options may seem different than ma...

2020 From A Chronic Illness Warrior

Friends, the year 2020 has definitely looked different that’s for sure.  It’s been interesting talking to my other friends with chronic illnesses and getting their perspective.  For me this is what has changed.   Positives: There have been more online freebies as far as events than I have ever seen. This has been great for the person with chronic illness and we all hope some of these things continue.  Things such as online church, zoo, ballets, concerts, etc.   No more trying to fake feeling good when I had to go out because I’m not getting out.   So many more places are doing online pick up instead of just Walmart and Kroger. I needed those services before coronavirus hit the United States. Now having so many more options; it’s been a wonderful!! People finally don’t guilt trip me into going to events and family functions because they know I’m high risk. Before I felt like I had to explain away everything if I didn’t feel good enough to go somewhere. ...

Gardening tips on a budget

Matt planting our $5 tree. It's 3 years old now and is gorgeous!!! A variety of basil panted in a container. Our lovely calendula. This is a family favorite grown from seed. Cherry tomatoes. Squash Another variety of basil. That was just a bit of what I grew a couple years ago. Bean plant. Lovely lavender! Many times I've wanted to plant a massive garden or have several plants I could simply not afford. Not just that but other things such as mulch, weed blankets and more. I hope you find the tips below as helpful as we have. Please feel free to add your own gardening tips. 1. Purchase trees at the end of the season. We've gotten a few trees for $5 and $10 at the end of the season. We planted them and they've done just fine! Talk about a huge savings! You can also do this with bulbs and other plants. :) 2. Use newspaper for weed barrier protection instead of the weed blankets. You'll want to do this fairly thick; anywhere from 5...
