Menu Plan: October 25 - 31
Do you ever feel like you are running all the time and still not doing anything? That's kind of how it's been around here. It's been so busy, but I feel like I just have pieces of things done and nothing complete. Anyway, here is the menu for the week. It's another busy one at home, in our school work, and with our garden/property. Tonight's dinner ended up being a way to quickly use up produce from our garden in a way that didn't require me cooking so I could continue with my knitting and other tasks. I also have a huge pile of grading to do, still, and I feel like I am teaching and grading from morning to night with Alexander's schedule.
Below, I include our daily Bible readings which we use to read through the entire Bible each year. We read through all of the Old Testament and New Testament, reading the Psalms and Proverbs twice. Remember that the Psalms are according to eastern numbering in our daily Bible reading, also I Kings is the original designation, it is I Samuel in western Bibles (II Kings is II Samuel in the west, III Kings is I Kings, and IV Kings is II Kings, I Ezra is also called I Esdras in other translations, II Ezra is often translated as Ezra or II Esdras).
