Groceries & Menu (I actually made one!)

I finally got around to separating and putting up all the groceries.  We bought some of those 6lb cans; 1 corn, 1 green beans, 1 peaches.  So I divided them in ziplock bags and put them in the freezer.  I made a list of what all I have in both the freezers so I won't forget.  I'm going to post the list here as well in case the list gets lost.

frozen pizza (2)         meatballs (2)          black-eyed peas (2gal)

broth (2gal, 1qt)        lasagne (3 pieces)   ham & beans (1gal)

spaghetti (1 serving)         chicken noodle soup (1-2 servings)

peaches 4c (2) 3c (1)   blueberries (1gal) 

whole-kernel corn 3c (3)  2.5c (1)       green beans 3c(3) 3.5c(1)

5lb ground beef       7lb chopped steak     4lb boneless round steak

Menu:

Sat - boneless round steak, mashed potatoes, corn

Sun - chili, chips, raw veggies to snack on (hello, football meal!)

Mon - spaghetti, green beans, salad

Tue - chopped steak w/ Italian dressing, salad, corn

Wed - taco night

Charlie's supposed to take off early from work...if so, I want to go to Sam's to see how much their Superbowl cakes are.  It's $25 at the local grocery store!    I'm still not sure who I'm rooting for...the Bears are my NFC favorite (Steelers are AFC) and have been since the 80's (and 70's), but I am also a fan of Peyton Manning and I'd like to see him win one.  Decisions, decisions.  Good news though, Cody's absolute favorite QB - Brett Farve - is going to come back next season!  Still no news on Clemens (I know, I switched sports on you).

Have a great day!

The picture I use is of my daugher, Bethany. I plan on changing it from time to time but just haven't yet.
