2. I have been staying home and out of the heat as much as possible. (At least two more months of extreme heat here probably...ugh!) Carey had finished a library book, and told me he was going to return it on his errand run on Wednesday. I asked him to pick up my reserved book that I had just received an email notification for.
3. While he ran his errands, I made a menu plan and grocery order. I picked it up on Thursday. And after I put them away, I put a roast in the slow cooker for supper. It was a nice roast, and there was plenty leftover to add a planned-over meal to the list, so we will have Beef Stroganoff one evening soon.
4. I had inadvertently added two roasts to the order, so I vacuum sealed the second one and it is now in the freezer awaiting a future roast dinner. Not too frugal to over order, but nice to be able to store it in the freezer in a manner keeping its quality.
5. I've been enjoying my cleaned off desk, and making lots of cards for birthdays coming up.
On the menu this week:
Saturday: breakfast for dinner
Sunday: Sunday family supper at Kasey & Beau's
Monday: (I can't remember)
Tuesday: Chicken Alfredo
Wednesday: Quiche
Thursday: Roast, potatoes, carrots
Friday: Mexican Cornbread

I've been staying inside too; it's been hot here although nothing like the temperatures you have. There was a vacuum sealer on sale at Costco, so I picked that up, looking forward to trying it.
ReplyDeleteJust a tip about vacuum sealers, they will suction out liquids, so I try to make sure foods are pretty liquid free before vacuuming, just to make the process and clean up is neater. I don't use mine a ton, but I do love it when I buy large packages of meat (as they are often less in price) to divide them into recipe quantities.
DeleteStay cool! :)
