Weekly Menu

.


Thanks to a lovely stomach bug that made its way through our house this week, I have several meals from last week's menu that were never prepared. I don't mind that they are showing up on this week's menu at all. I don't even have to shop for them.

I'm doubling a few of my meals this week for a family from church. The mother of the family is beginning chemotherapy for breast cancer and our church has a "Stone "Soup" ministry that organized to bring meals every day during her treatment. I'm taking over some meals that she can keep in her freezer in case she has a gaps in daily meals. I mention this because this is a great ministry, and I find that Catholic churches don't often organize like this. If your church has a ministry for helping families in need, consider volunteering. Often I just make double of what I'm already making, and it's so appreciated by the family in need. I think I'll bake some cookies and muffins for them to have in their freezer, too.
