Menu Plan Monday

I have to say one thing right now. PLEASE do not read this menu if you do not genuinely want to. Because I know what it's like to read things like this (or even just to know about other people's lives, etc.) and to compare myself to them, only to feel like I don't nearly measure up in the end. Certainly, it is no one's intention to make anyone feel like that, but it's what we do to ourselves. We punish ourselves. Our lives are not the same. We live in various circumstances and have various personality styles. We need to remember that about people. As with any and all of my blog posts, I absolutely don't post these menus to "show off." (Boy, if you only knew what goes on around here...!) I post to help myself be more organized, to remember things, to hold myself accountable for following through with a plan, and, hopefully, to provide menu ideas for those looking for them. Whew! Okay. I just had to get that off my chest.
