We have eaten at home every day, leftovers from Thanksgiving mostly that I had put in the freezer for future meals
I finally broke down and fixed pork chops in the crock pot with a honey garlic ginger sauce just to have something different yesterday.
Tonight I used some of the sausage that I had cooked,bagged and froze, on top of 2 pizza crusts that didn't get used at Thanksgiving, added a chef salad that I made to round out the meal.
Fixed a sausage french toast casserole for tomorrow as it needs to sit over night in the frig. Probably will have it for breakfast or dinner depending on if we eat the 2nd pizza for breakfast or dinner.
I plan to pull out the last rib roast from the deep freezer and a box of the pie dough to see if I can make some cookies from it.Got a few recipes from the internet but not sure they would pass with my crew.
I decorated the front room tree today. Have the dining room left to clean and decorate tomorrow and then start upstairs on Tuesday.
Monday is kitchen day along with laundry. I am working on Christmas presents, Christmas cards and cookies and candy for the kids and grandkids besides decorating the dining room.
We talked about our eating from the pantry and buying less at the store. I want to save up some money to buy garden items, seeds and plants this spring which is only a couple months away as I cover a couple of my square foot gardens with hoop houses and plant early.We were trying to decide what amount to spend and on what.
I will have to think about that a bit longer, check out some others that have done the same thing also.
Everyone stay safe, stay warm and Blessings on you and yours.
