So….. Thank you all for helping out with the food crisis. I have done a few of your suggestions. I looked through my freezers and pantry and came up with meals I could just make or only needed a few ingredients. I also placed my first online order to NS and that was awesome!! Thank you Adina (and Gary) for the suggestion. This has been our menu this week…
Mon – out (order placing day)
Tue- faux pho
Wed- Cuban style black beans, brown rice, and sauteed kale.
Thurs – burrito night with leftover beans.
Fri- making rice and salad as we are going to a friend’s for dinner.
I will try to post next week’s menu after the week is up. This is helping me to get out of our rut and hopefully you will respond with your menus 
yay
On another note I have been toying with the idea of opening my own little bake sale business. A few friends have hired me to make treats for them and I am hoping I can grow out of word of mouth. I also was hired by our photog friend Amy to make some custom knits for her. It is nice to feel like I actually have something to contribute. Now is when I ask you for a couple more favors…..
#1 If you need any fancy (or not so fancy) baked goods keep me in mind.
B- I need help with a name. I like either “Treats” or “Bake Sale”. Thoughts?

I guess “Eat My Shit” bakery is a bit harsh?
