So meal planning is one of my favorite things to do - as long as I do it in advance! This is one of my lists that make living for today sooooo much easier. Unfortunately I am easily stressed by the unknown and am also extremely indecisive. If we do not have a plan for dinner I will spend at least an hour stressing over what to cook etc. then still not be happy with what we made. When I plan a whole month's of meals I don't have to think about what to make at all I just look at my calendar and bam its all there! Also, just because it is planned this way doesn't mean we always stick to it - I have already adjusted the first four days due to having leftovers and our unexpected picnic at the beach last night! Each week I will update with some of the recipes others I will post a link to where I found it. Enjoy!
