well... lazy day.  I convinced Brian to stay home sick on my day off today.  Good thing I did because he was pretty sick.  Lots of clutching the stomach.  I tried to feed him what I tell all my patients to eat with stomach viruses: Banana, Rice, Applesauce, Toast, and Yogurt.  But he doesn't like Yogurt and Bananas.  Applesauce and Toast made him sicker.  So I just kept feeding him toast, water, and propel. We shall get through this.
I had gotten the bright idea to make freezer meals on Sunday.  I ran out and got all the ingredients to make freezable chicken pot pie.  So I ended up making it from scratch tonight.  It tasted awesome. and Brian got to enjoy it and not get sick.  And then I had another one to stick in the freezer.  We shall see.  I figure Brian will be able to pop it in when I'm working till 7.
I am toying the with idea of meal planning. People say once you do it you save money and life is easier.  Just seems like a lot of energy to change habits.
I got a new dell computer yesterday.  My other one was taken over by a virus and is pretty much toast.  This one is pink!!!  It is awesome.  and No viruses.  shall purchase virus protection from here on out.  I am just spoiled rotten- iphones and laptops.
God is good.

I kind of do meal planning. Based on when I think I'll go shoping next I make a list of what meals sound good for say 14 days. Then I go item by item adding to my list what ingredients I don't have. I usually try to have the meals with the fresher ingredients earlier on so they don't spoil but I don't stick to a strict this meal is for this day. Not sure if its cheaper but means less excess trips to the store for a missing ingredient. Then I wing it for lunch and breakfast.
I've been thinking about doing freezer food too but I just don't have all that much room in my freezer. I started doing the menu planning and it has saved us a couple of hundred $$ so far. I move the foods around during the week sometimes and sometimes I stray from the plan it but helps me to have a plan instead of the "what's for dinner problem".
