Sometimes things just get stuck, often around the holidays and other busy times of year. There's so much to catch up with, and things kind of get stuck when it comes to food and cooking. I found this out recently, when there was so much going on, and I didn't even realize that I didn't have a proper food plan.

Every day I would be like; whoa, I have no idea what we're doing for lunch or dinner today. Then I would have to make a last minute plan, like doing some quick online shopping for something like quiche or pie, or chicken breasts that I could cook quickly. This just kept happening day after day.

That's not usually the case, because we usually have stuff that we've cooked that week. We like to do a lot of cooking on Tuesday and Wednesday - our kids each help on different days. We also do quite a bit of cooking for our church family, so we have to be doing a lot of cooking, but sometimes there's just a lot going on, and things don't happen. That's what happened to me last week, and I had about four days where I just realized: oh, I don't have a plan for this.

Now I want to tell you what I did to kind of correct that, because it got to the point where I felt overwhelmed, and it wasn't working, and I just never had the energy to cook.
