Family Balance Sheet
MARCH 2, 2011
The weeks that I take the time to plan the menu are the weeks that I have control over our spending.

My main goal is to mostly cook at home, and other than that, I’m not stressing for now. Next time I’d cook the chicken, put it to the side, and add it at the very last minute, once the sauce was cooked. Which is a little high, but I don’t care.
