Hopefully, your teeth will give you a break, and you will feel better!<br /><br />I made a menu plan, and we are eating it for the most part, but was blessed with a meal from a friend and the soup she made lasted 2 nights, so that helped out. On the other hand, it looks like we will be having several people come help us (Yea!!!) on Friday and Saturday, so I will be making Crock Pots of food for them. I will decide today, and defrost things. It's the least I can do, and something like chili or soup will stretch far, and give them a meal.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536514511090897212.post-31073956093523471372016-02-24T14:48:37.728-09:002016-02-24T14:48:37.728-09:00Yuck!

No longer will your children or to be grandchildren wonder how to make one thing or another as most likely the blog has the recipe~and also so much more about the uniqueness of each family!<br />JenniferHumble wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02823200562312609670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536514511090897212.post-11705871023138352942016-02-24T10:02:14.011-09:002016-02-24T10:02:14.011-09:00I normally don't buy short ribs for that exact...I normally don't buy short ribs for that exact reason. But, I was able to get a package cheap last week and I've found in the past that making a dish like the one I mentioned in the menu really helps to stretch the meat available on the ribs, makes a really flavorful dish and if you serve it over pasta the family doesn't really notice the lack of meat as much. I think I can make the little bit of meat I got stretch pretty well.Erika, "The Make Do Homemaker"https://www.blogger.com/profile/09303208981550053539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536514511090897212.post-80892792995231037652016-02-24T10:00:29.150-09:002016-02-24T10:00:29.150-09:00Yup, sprouting feathers pretty much covers it *lau...Yup, sprouting feathers pretty much covers it *laugh*.Erika, "The Make Do Homemaker"https://www.blogger.com/profile/09303208981550053539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536514511090897212.post-85576426307184378172016-02-24T10:00:02.085-09:002016-02-24T10:00:02.085-09:00I was.

Luckily my husband was home doing paperwork in the afternoons so he was able to drive to pick up the kids from school. <br /><br />The worst part is the Novocaine shot flared my TMJ something fierce the last couple of days, so I've had a continuous migraine pretty much since my dental appointment. Thank goodness for Ibuprofen :).Erika, "The Make Do Homemaker"https://www.blogger.com/profile/09303208981550053539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536514511090897212.post-80826018976459919512016-02-24T07:59:45.148-09:002016-02-24T07:59:45.148-09:00Sounds like your sprouting feathers again this wee...Sounds like your sprouting feathers again this week, Erika! It feels like we're on the same page a lot. I'm making a chicken pot pie this week as well.

They cost $5.99 lb., were very good, but with the bones not a ton of meat for the cost. The meals sound really good this week, especially the roast chicken dinner.
