Menu planning + momAgenda = savings of time, $ and sanity
I just found this useful article, The Art of Menu Planning, which has some great tips on planning, organizing and shopping for the week. I use the MomAgenda desktop planner (in lime), which has a place for each child’s activities, my appointments, and dinner for each night all in a stylish week-to-a-view layout. When I make the time to plan out my week in advance, including juggling three carpools, doctor’s appointments and small details like my 60+-hour-a-week job, I feel much more organized and ready to handle anything that comes my way. When I don’t make the time for this planning, I end up feeling harried, overscheduled, and burdened by the eternally nagging question “What will we make for dinner tonight?”
This never ends well, requiring yet another trip to the grocery store or, worse yet, ordering take-out or delivery. Too many of those fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants-nights really add up ~ and dull the luster on my uber-mom tiara!
Did I mention that the momAgenda planners are now on sale at 50% off?! Just think of the savings ~ to your wallet, your time and, perhaps most importantly, your sanity!
By the way, I found the menu planning article while looking at Simple Mom Finds, after reviewing a blog post on the Simple Mom website, which was linked to by Hostess With the Mostess blogger Jennifer Sbranti on Twitter. I love social networking!
