Shopping for 2 weeks at a time has been working out really well for me. have been writing a 2 week menu plan for supper and doing a big shopping trip every other week with a small trip for fruit, milk, bread, and lunch meat in between. Having 14 days of suppers planned at a time also makes it wasy to change things around if we have something come up at the last minute and lowers the temptation to eat out.
Friday 12/9-pizza
Saturday 12/10-baked potato soup
Sunday 12/11- chicken and rice casserole, bread and butter, applesauce
Monday 12/12- pork chops, oven roasted potatoes, cauliflower
Tuesday 12/13- spaghetti
Wednesday 12/14- deer steaks, baked potatoes, broccoli
Thursday 12/15- breakfast

Just had to take a minute to share that I am also a homeschooling mom of seven, ages 16 down to 9 months. I always enjoy finding other moms who "speak my language." :-)
