Meal Plan W/E 1/28

We had a small casualty of food waste this week . A bit of buttermilk (half a cup maybe) that just didn't make it's way into a pancake, a smoothie or a waffle.  Sorry buttermilk, I feel bad that you made your way down the drain instead of into a breakfast of mine.  But I would say three weeks into the new year - that's way better than what I've run into in the past.

This is another week of no weekday hockey games, I know February will be similar but March will be something else.  So it's great that I'm making all these bigger items on Sundays so we can freeze portions of them for later - like March when the Bruins have 5 weeknight home games!  A weeknight home game prevents me from cooking a dinner and having leftovers for lunches, so stocking the freezer now will pay off in March.

Anyway  - this week the hubs has a night out with a friend to pony up the cash for his Sox tickets and I am getting my hair did one night.  Also I have a lovely day of shopping, lunch & a movie on Saturday with one of my gal pals. We also have the Caps, the Pats & the Bruins playing on Sunday so we are planning an early trip to the grocery store and getting some food prepped and parking our butts on the couch for some hockey and the AFC Championship game.  Also Tuesday night is the first Caps vs Bruins match up of the season - they are away so it's separate ends of the couch for a couple hours and we'll need a quick meal suitable for the coffee table.
