I think I'll be doing a weekly roundup if only to post my menu plan for the week. I hope you find it useful - I know having a menu plan saves me a lot of time and stress, even if I deviate from it like I did this past week.
Since it's the season of giving, let me advocate for one of my favorite charities, One Simple Wish - they fulfill the wishes of people of all ages (but mostly children) who are or were in foster care. One thing they do incredibly well is share the stories of those they help, so you really feel your donations are making a difference. (And they have a four-star rating at Charity Navigator.) Some of the wishes can be pricey, but there are less expensive wishes, and you can always make a donation toward a wish too. Do you have a favorite charity I should check out?
Ever wondered how to get coffee/tea stains out of a white mug?
The 2025-2026 FAFSA is now open for filing. I've got my fingers crossed that this year will go more smoothly than last year!
Is anyone else enjoying the newest NCIS show, Origins?
My menu plan for this week is really simple because I just moved over two items from last week that didn't work out and since I'll be cooking up a storm for Thanksgiving, we'll be eating leftovers or very simply through the weekend:
Menu Plan - November 25, 2024
Monday: Clam Chowder (still with modifications - I'll add bacon, use whole clams, and bottled clam juice)
Tuesday: Salmon Chirashizushi (yes, again, we have it almost weekly)
Wednesday: Oven-Baked Chicken and Rice
Thursday: All the Thanksgiving eats
Friday-Sunday: Leftovers and ?
