If you notice the title above, it includes 8 days. Since I post on Monday's, I decided to change my posts from Monday to Sunday. Last week I did not post the 8th's menu, so this week's post will be 8 days long to include January 8th.
Something else that I am doing this year is highlighting each menu item on my printed calendar after I make it. In the past, I have been great about making the meals. The extras have not always gotten made. By highlighting them, I can easily spot the items that I need to make.
Lastly, we are bringing back big Sunday meals. We attempted this in the past, and we did not stick by it. So, Sunday will have a nice meal and dessert.
Sunday- Cider Beef and Mashed Potatoes, Apple Pie
Monday- Pizza
Tuesday- Hoagies
Wednesday- Dinner at Church
Thursday- Cowboy Beans

Friday- Bow-Tie Pasta and Chicken
Saturday- My birthday, so we will be eating out!
Sunday- German theme: Pork Chops, Sauerkraut, Dessert (still deciding)
Extra's that I will be making for snacks and breakfast:
Cookies
Cinnamon Rolls
Sausage Casserole
Chocolate Pie
