Wow, I can’t believe that we are almost through the month of March, and we are also reaching the end of our challenge. We made it through week #4, and this week went a little smoother than week #3. James is really proud of us, and he is determined for us to make it through the next few days, but we are definitely celebrating on the first day of April!

Week 4 brought many tasty meals, and I restocked the freezer with a few staples for future meals. I made a Turkey on Sunday night, and that made for really simple lunches and dinners during the week. I also made 6 quarts of Turkey Stock that I will use for Turkey & Noodles, or Chicken Chow Mien in April. I also made homemade Broccoli & Potato Soup for fast lunches for me. I treated the kiddos to Kid Cuisine before their Doctor’s appointment on Friday, and Thade was thrilled.

To keep James co-worker’s from bringing in Donuts on Friday, I baked a double batch of Banana Muffins, and they were a big hit. I don’t think anyone missed take-out donuts on that day.

I’m really proud that we are almost finished with the month, and so far my family is still speaking to me. Dylan even gave me a great big hug, thanking me for his favorite meal on his birthday, or maybe it was thanking me for the batch of birthday brownies.
