I'm back...and menu plan monday

I'm back after a long break. I really meant to be back much sooner but one thing let to another. Little R is doing well and has really adjusted to being at home with us. Now back to our regularly scheduled program.

Here's my menu plan for the week:

Chicken kabobs with various veggies and rice

Pork chops, mashed potatoes and green beans

Sloppy joes, french fries and a salad

Rachael Ray's Pasta bake and a salad

*Only 4 meals this week b/c we'll being going to a wedding. Plus I usually leave two night for left overs and simple meals from the pantry.

I also took a little break from couponing. Last week was my second week back at it and I got a couple great deals. $96 worth of groceries for $36! Including 6 lbs of pork and 2 big bags of charcoal.
