Meal Plan Monday.....the September 8th Edition

"Grossing Anne out".........



I sent this photo of a shirt I acquired.  It's a Schrute Farms shirt from "The Office" tv series.

I "know" of Anne's love of beets so I thought I'd torture her with this shirt.  And not only is it beet themed but it's beet colored!lolz

    Sounds tasty, Sluggy. I am using up the last of the turkey I made over the weekend for tonight's dinner. I also need to soak some beans to have later this week.

    I love how detailed and organized your meal planning is, it’s inspiring to see someone track both the groceries and the savings so carefully. The Schrute Farms shirt is a hilarious touch, and I can imagine the beet-themed teasing added some extra fun to your week. Using freezer items and leftovers so efficiently makes the whole process feel smart and manageable. www.melodyjacob.com
