In the Kitchen

Tuesday’s Tip

Amazingly, I am doing a blog two days in a row.  This time it’s back to Tuesday’s Tip.  I thought I’d mention two things that I particularly enjoy having for my kitchen.
First, I have a huge marker board on a kitchen wall in which the space is not usable for anything else.  This marker board has been great for several reasons.  We write down things we need to buy the next time we make a trip to the store.  We use it to write down menus for several days at a time, especially when we are planning for company.  Third, we use it to draw silly pictures and write notes back and forth to one another – like this:
Second, quite a long time ago I made a chart which lists various food categories, and then I’ve listed a number of food ideas that fits each category.  The purpose is so that we don’t get stuck in a rut of eating the same things over and over again.  That doesn’t happen to any of you, does it? 🙂  Since we were traveling in the car for several hours today, I decided to use some of my time to create a new list.  I know there are probably some things that I’ve forgotten to include.  Feel free to use it as is, or use it as an idea to create your own list with foods your family enjoys.  And by all means, if you have some ideas, please share!

I hope you all have a great week!
