I’m excited! Coming up on the blog the month of December is going to be all things Christmas. You can expect posts with ideas for gifts, holiday recipes, and thoughts on Christmas and the season. What I’m looking forward to the most is having some of my family guest post! I’m excited to introduce them to you and share their thoughts and recipes.
Since Thanksgiving is this week, I’m cutting back on posting. I know I’m not going to be spending time reading and browsing the internet – I’m going to be enjoying my family! So, instead of writing posts that nobody is going to have time to read, I’ve decided to take focus on December.
This week is a short one. When it comes to menu planning the name of the game is to use up what’s in the fridge and hopefully avoid grocery shopping. Here’s our (non exciting) menu before we head into Thanksgiving activities:
Breakfasts:
- Bran muffins
- Apple Pancakes (from freezer)
- Yogurt
Lunches:
- Chicken Gravy over Potatoes
- Leftovers
- Salad
- Baked Sweet Potatoes
Suppers:
- Creamy Potato Soup (with veggies added in – carrots, celery, and zucchini)
- Salad
- Leftovers
Goals (affiliate links):
- Start a new book! (Yep, that means I got both of the books finished from last week)
- Get the posts for the first week of December completed
- Start the 7-Day Say Goodbye to Survival Mode Challenge (I’m only doing a few days this week because of Thanksgiving and am finishing it next week)
- Get ready to start Truth in the Tinsel
- Enjoy Thanksgiving weekend with family!
Linking up with Menu Plan Monday








Yummy menu plan! Have a very happy Thanksgiving!
Not as yummy as yours. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by!
Creamy Potato Soup sounds good! I’m in the mood for soup with the cold weather we’ve been having!
I love soup this time of year! It really has cooled off here the past week. Perfect for baking and hot tea though, so that’s nice.
