I have always been the kind of person who was overly concerned about what was for dinner. I start thinking about it during lunch (sometimes breakfast) and then become really concerned about it as the day progresses. I used to drive my mom nuts! In order to save my self a lot of stress I have decided to start planning my meals the week before. This has a lot of advantages! It makes grocery shopping way easier, it causes a lot less worry, and gives Matt something to look forward to. So far we only stick to the menu about 50% of the time, but our schedules have been pretty hectic recently. I kind of foresaw this happening and built some flex days into the menu.
