December Menu

I am not sure what I’ve got going here because I’ve been starting a menu in the middle of the month.  I think it is just because of all the holiday goings-on that we just never know when we are going to be home or not.  That is the beauty of menu planning.  I can just look at the list of meals that I chose and shopped for, however long ago it was, and pick something knowing that when I open the cupboard the ingredients will be there!
