Meal planning sucks. I don't like it. How do I know if I'm going to be in the mood for spaghetti on Tuesday when I'm writing the plan on Sunday? But, like it or not, it is something I really should be doing....something that will save us money. And THAT is something I'm going to have to work on so we can comfortably afford a new house payment (have I mentioned we are getting our house ready to sell? ha.)

Anyway - I struggle with meal ideas...especially since I"m trying to work my way through the pantry/fridge. Lunch ideas are the worst. So, as embarrassing as some of these choices may be, I'm posting them. They don't seem very healthy - and they don't seem very creative...but I think I"m not alone with these types of meals. Please feel free to share your meal ideas - better or worse!
