menu plan: august 2014


August.  I have a love/hate relationship with August.  It's still summer.  School begins again.  Our crazy summer schedule turns into our crazy school schedule.  The thing that I love about the crazy school schedule, though, is how routine it is.  I love the lack of routine when we begin summer.  I hate the lack of routine at the end of summer.  School = Routine.  It makes me happy at the beginning of the year. :)

The August menu plan also gets me a bit excited because I know that the September plan is up next, which is when I start throwing soups back into the mix!  Have I mentioned that I love soup?!  It might be one of my favorite foods.  Ever.  (But not more favorite than cookies.)

Okay...on with it, already!  (And I'm starting with August 5 because I just did the plan today, and I don't feel like digging into my memory box to try to remember what we've had for dinner the past 4 nights.)
