Menu Plan: May 7 - 13
Christ is Risen! The Lord is Risen Indeed! Alleluia!
Spring is officially here, though we did have a few cooler days in between the spike in temperature last week and the gradual heat that looks to be coming this week. Flowers are blooming, our maple tree leafed out almost overnight, and it is the best time of year for this part of our state. May through July is really the only time I love it here. Everything is alive, and in June and July fruits and vegetables begin to be available. Usually, there isn't much fire activity during this time, either.
Anyway, aside from needing those quick meals, we are still actively trying to excavate our freezers and make room for lambs, turkeys, and other meat from butchering. So, we are trying to eat from the freezer and pantry until there is sufficient room. We will eventually also need room for that produce I mentioned above.
