Our Menu Plan for the week of 03/30/2015
As we say Good Bye to March, we say Hello to April :) Warmer weather :)
We hope everyone had a nice and peaceful weekend. Last week was pure craziness here, but what else is new? I was running around like a chicken with her head cut off. Between crazy work schedules, homeschooling, youth group, our small group at church, softball practice, softball game and nice big beginning of the month grocery shopping adventure~ I am exhausted. I am very thankful that this week is slowing down :) No youth group, no small group and no softball game. I will take it and hopefully be able to catch up on a little bit of sleep~ I hope :)
When trying to figure out our menu plan for April, I asked the boys for their input, They insisted on having a bean month. We haven't had one in a while and our grocery budget could sure use it :) Let's see if we can pull it off :)
Here is our menu plan for this week:
Breakfast
Cheerios with raisins and strawberries X2
Applesauce muffins with fruit X2
Pancakes with fruit X2
Oatmeal with nuts and raisins
Lunch
Salad with homemade ranch dressing and a banana for myself and hubby when he is home
Sandwich with carrots and grapes for everyone else or leftovers
Dinner
Lentil Loaf, mashed potatoes and green beans
Lentil burgers with carrots, cucumbers and cherry tomatoes
Lentil & Sausage Soup
Lentil tacos with zuchinni
Lentil & Rice Casserole with green beans
Lentil meatballs with mashed potatoes and peas
Lentil Sloppy Joes with corn
Snacks and desserts
Apples slices
Carrots
Cucumbers
Bananas
Grapes
Popcorn
Strawberries
Chocolate Pixie cookies- from Chocolate Covered Katie cookbook
Sinless Peanut Butter cookies- from Chocolate Covered Katie cookbook

Dial Sugar Cane Husk Scrub Review & Giveaway
Experience the luxury of the Boutique Collection with new Dial Sugar Cane Husk Scrub hand soap.
New Dial Sugar Cane Husk Scrub hand soap is the newest member of the Dial Boutique Collection hand soap line, bringing luxury to your hand washing experience. With an indulgent scent inspired by freshly cut Sugar Cane, this premium formula with gentle micro scrubbers cleanses deeply while moisturizing and smoothing skin. Micro scrubbers help gently remove dirt from your hands to leave them feeling smooth and refreshed.
I am really liking this new Dial Sugar Cane Husk Scrub hand soap. Wow, that is a mouthful to say :) I wash my hands constantly through out the day. Most times, especially during the winter, my poor hands get cracked and hurt due to my constant hand washing. This hand soap is nice and moisturizing. The scent is nice and light, it is almost like a sugary vanilla- yummy :) I love how you can feel the micro scrubbers gently scrubbing your hands as you wash them.
Dial was so nice to send me 3 coupons good for FREE Dial hand washing products to bless my wonderful readers with.

Adventures in Container Gardening
Our last container garden update was a sad one. We had lost most of our container plants thanks to some freezing weather :( We were curious to see what the last 2 container plants were going to do.
Now that the weather has warmed up, it seems our lonely last 2 plants are soaking up the rays, especially the cherry tomato plant.
Try not to be too sad for our container garden graveyard.
We are super excited that soon, we will be emptying out the containers, refilling them and replanting. Keep your fingers crossed that this garden season will be better than last. Each garden season is unique and provides its own learning moments. We love it and will keep you all informed as to what is going on in our adventures in container gardening :)

Our Family Fun Saturday
On our last Family Fun Saturday, we went out to Calusa Nature Center. I had gotten a couple of emails from them describing their newest additions, updates and Planetarium shows. The boys were excited and really wanted to visit, so we did :)
They are still working on areas of the property, so many animal habitats were not ready. We did find out that Al & Ally Alligators habitat had been cleaned and boy did they look happy :) I was quite happy that their butterfly garden had more butterflies than the lonely 1 when I last visited. The boys were happy to discover a scavenger hunt sheet. They worked real hard trying to find all the items on the sheet.
Here are some pictures of our visit:
We had a blast and are hoping that more of their projects will be completed by our next visit. Nathan really enjoyed the new Planetarium programs. I can't wait to see where our next Family Fun Saturday will take us :)

Dial Miracle Oil Body Wash is infused with caring Marula oil for beautifully, soft skin. This new body wash is formulated with Micro Oil Technology for a luxurious, clean rinsing lather that leaves skin feeling clean, soft and smooth.
Caring oils are a major trend in hair care and cosmetics. Dial is bringing these trendy oils to your shower.

I am in love with Dial Miracle Oil body wash. It is like a mini spa in a bottle. I have super dry skin all the time but especially in the winter months. My poor feet look so dry and cracked.
I decided to give Dial Miracle Oil a try. I am hooked, this body wash is amazing. It has a nice light scent and seems to leave a nice drenching layer on your skin. I haven't had to put on body lotion in a week. I can no longer "write" on my arm with my fingernails :) My poor tired dry feet are visibly looking a lot better especially my heels :)

February 2015 Monthly Project
Our February monthly project was to make Mayonnaise.
I was interested to see if I could actually make Mayo. And after reading Laura's wonderful blog post about her scrambled oil eggs, I became a little nervous about the whole mayo making process.
I used this recipe for this project.
But we decided to try and see what happened. And here is what happened:
As Laura pointed out, slowly adding your oil is the key to making homemade mayonnaise. Thankfully, we don't use a lot of mayo so I don't see myself making this anytime in the future. I used it to make ranch dressing for my lunch salads. It was yummy :)

Here are the egg yolks, salt, vinegar and sugar- looks yummy right?? |
S-L-O-W-L-Y letting the oil dribble in the yolk mixture while the blender is blending |
Look- I did it. I made Mayo :) |

February 2015 Goals
How did we do with our February goals? Let's see:
1) To not eat out or at least to not pay out of pocket, with the exception of tips. If we want to treat the family to a meal out, we will make sure we have a gift card to cover all of us.
Did fabulous with this goal.
2) Pay off our last 2 credit cards
Still chipping away at this. The last card is a pretty hefty one :( Still on Dave Ramsey's FPU Step 2 :)
3) Not to use any of our credit cards for 2015. To pay cash for everything.
Great way to start 2015 :)
4) To maintain our grocery budget. Our current grocery budget is $400 month for our family of 6. Our goal is to use up to that amount to feed our family healthy nourishing meals. If we are lucky enough to come under our monthly budget, we will save that amount.
Did awesome. Thanks to making a freezer and pantry list and eating from that, we were able to have $30 left over :)
5) To create a monthly meal plan for our family, to use leftovers more efficiently and to make use of everything in our pantry and freezer.
YAY!! Making use of what we had in the pantry and freezer let us save $30 :)
6) Lose weight- My goal is to lose 10 lbs this year.
It started out great last month and kind of fizzled out this month :( Thanks to crazy work schedules and even crazier weather, we were not able to run at all this month. Need to get in gear.
7) Complete the Couch to 5K with hubby
Hubby and I are still at week 5. It started out great last month and kind of fizzled out this month :( Thanks to crazy work schedules and even crazier weather, we were not able to run at all this month. Need to get in gear.
8) Morning devotions, prayer time and more bible reading
Doing great with our church's website, which will read the bible verse to you :)
9) Monthly date night with hubby- whether we go out or stay at home, pop popcorn and rent a movie
Did not have a date night :(
10) To spend quality family time together. With everyones schedule and us running all over creation, I would love to spend more quality time together- no tv- us playing games, talking, enjoying each others company. I think we are going to claim Saturday's as family fun day:)
We were able to squeeze in a Family Fun Saturday at Manatee Park.
11) Not to use our dryer to save on electricity and lower our electricity bill
Doing fabulous, by not using the dryer, I now have the electric bill down to what I was paying for our teeny house back in Virginia. Not using the air or heat is a huge plus also. Have I mentioned how much I LOVE Florida winters :)
12) To do 1 project a month and blog about it
We are so excited. We did February's project and will tell you all about it tomorrow.
13) My older boys want to run a 5K~ a color run to be more specific. So, I am jumping on board with them, after I finish my Couch to 5K program :)
Still waiting to hear the color run date.
14) To make and use more non toxic cleaners
I am still researching and working on this one :)
