This week I'm trying something new: Instead of scheduling a hardline plan for meals, I thought I'd give my family options. Yes, I said options. I know, I know, for the OCD-at-Heart, I am creating a load of dastardly uncertainty for myself, which has my heart palpitating at the very thought, but, with all the sun-shining and the bird-singing going on around here, I feel like trying something new, something verdant, something Springy!

ReplyDeleteI am obsessed with my label maker...go label your fridge! I bet you haven't done that yet!
Poverty pasta??? Sounds interesting....maybe you could post a recipe for it?! Great menu!
