I've been talking about this for awhile but, I am at the point, now, that I have NO choice...I need to get a meal plan in place AND I need to get some meals done up ahead of time.
The church schedule is changing, aside from B being in classes every second week during the evenings (starting at 6:30), we have Monday night corporate prayer, Friday night's service, Saturday's worship practice and Sunday's service. I think it would make things a lot easier and more chaos free to have that implemented.
I am also going to revert back to the days of making Breakfast Burritos to freeze and pre-making sandwiches to freeze, then they are ready to pull out of the freezer and just add preferred veggies. It may seem like a lot of work but it takes no time at all, really, to make 10 sandwiches instead of 2 or 15 instead of 3...
The first service in the new sanctuary is coming up FAST! April 10 we will be there for our first service ever! No more foyer! I am looking so forward to it but it will seem odd, I tink, for the first while. In a way, it was nice for us to be where we were; I think it built a commradre between us all. I know it brought the worship team closer together.
Back to the meal plan, I think I will do up a monthly one that will be used for the entire season. We cook seasonally in our house...summer is not a time to even think about plugging the toaster in let alone the oven...gets way too hot here. I am hoping that that will save time and ease planning every second week.
I am wanting to get into better shape (I think C and B are too) and I think we can accomplish this just by making this meal plan so we can avoid eating garbage or last minute trips to McD's or calling in for pizza. I think it will force us, in a sense, to get more veggies and fruits into our system.
