Menu Plan Monday – April 13, 2009
I’m walking 60 miles in the Breast Cancer 3-day! Will you help me reach my goal?
I hope everyone had a good weekend. Ours was great, getting to hang out with each other, making Easter Story cookies, going to church, and Easter dinner… So nice. My kid were fabulous helpers getting everything ready for Easter dinner. I couldn’t have done it without them. Thanks, guys!
Head over to Laura’s for Menu Plan Monday and see what is on everyone else’s plate this week. For the Gluten Free Menu Swap, Gluten Free Goodness is our lovely host this week. She has chosen flax as the theme ingredient. I will be using a lot of flax this next week or so. We egged it up for Easter and I feel a need to do our baking egg-free for the nest week to balance it our! Flax seed is my usual go to for binding in egg-free baked goods. I usually use golden flax in my baking as my littlest one is so picky – the golden flax really blends in…

I’m walking 60 miles in the Breast Cancer 3-day! Will you help me reach my goal?
Wow, you are doing the 60 mile walk?! That is fantastic.
I think it’s going to be fun. Challenging, but fun. The walking just to train for it is incredible (mostly just trying to fit it in to my day and getting my knees to move), but I am already planning out my grocery store trips with the little wagon we have. I am hoping that will help me get the milage in!
