This week was supposed to be kids choice week, but we received the news that my Grandfather is doing worse than they thought. Eventhough I am in late pregnancy I need to make a trip up there to be with him before he goes. This menu is all tentative and can easily be done by my older children and husband if I need to leave suddenly.
Eventhough I don't feel like making a menu plan right now, I know that we still need to eat. I also know that having a menu will save me from actually having to think much about what we're going to eat this week.
I have deemed this week crockpot week. I might actually cook one or two meals, but I will be using my crockpot as much as possible. I will post recipes later on today for those of you who would like them.
Lots of people still like to know how much I am spending weekly for my food budget. This week will cost me right at $50.00, since I need a few staple items.

Monday: Waffles
Tuesday: Baked oatmeal
Wednesday: Muffins and sausage

Your dinners sound so lovely. I love my slow cooker especially in those warmer months so you can keep that kitchen nice and cool.

Sorry to hear about your grandfather. Your menu looks yummy, I haven't tried bbq chicken pizza before I might have to give it a try.
