Menu Plan Monday Conversation Style - April 27th - May 11th

This week is going to be WILD! We have baseball pics, baseball practice and games. I am also getting ready to go on a work retreat for a week and leaving my two invaluable children with my most trusted husband which scares me to high heaven. We have parent teacher conferences on Thursday night as well as two games at the same time afterwards. I am singing, "I will survive. . ." in my head.

Monday - baseball pics; ate cheese quesadillas, hummus (I do not put curry in mine) and ice cream to celebrate a win . . .finally!!!

Tuesday - Gretel's first game for the year at 7:00! The kid has to be in bed as soon as the game is over. Why do we sign our kids up for stuff then complain about it?? I shall stop at this point! Ok, girls. . . is it hamburger helper time?? Not yet, I think that is Thursday night.

In celebrating being at the ballpark all week we are having Ballpark Franks and twice baked potatoes that I cooked the day before. As soon as the kids get home from school I have to plop them into a chair with food to scarf down. We are having apple slab pie tonight too when we get home from the game (for a Johnny Appleseed Project.)
