Menu Plan Monday (November 8, 2010)

Last week's menu plan kind totally went out the window. For some reason, we ended up eating not-so-healthy things like mac n cheese, frozen pizza, and pancakes instead of my planned meals. With all the craziness that has been going on around here lately, it's bound to happen I guess. Along with our daughter's health issues (her bone marrow test is now scheduled for November 16), I have been feeling pretty crummy myself lately. An infected cut on my hand (now healed, thankfully), strange lumps on my calf (I now have at least 4 of them), joint and all-over general pain, bouts of weakness, etc. etc. have left me feeling not very motivated to cook lately. I have no idea what is up with my health, but I booked another appointment with my doctor in a couple weeks to get those lumps checked out again and discuss my overall health. A few weeks ago there were only 1 or 2 that I could tell and as of yesterday I can count 4 separate ones. Freaking me out? Yeah, just a little. I have been considering completely re-vamping our eating (think - no refined sugars, no white flour, organic fruits and veggies, etc.), but I can't seem to find the energy or time right now to do such things. So, for now, here's the plan for the week.
