HAPPY HOMEMAKER & MENU PLAN MONDAY

It's another Monday... and you know what that means. It's time to link up with Sandra over at Diary of a Stay at home mom and Laurie at I'm an Organizing Junkie for Happy Homemaker and Menu Plan Monday.

It was a lazy weekend around here - lot's of reading, race watching and goofing off. Weather was too nice!

BREAKFAST

I'm cheating and having Mickey D's on my way to town.

THE WEATHER OUTSIDE
THIS MORNING:
It's cold this morning, but promises to be warm and sunny by the time I get back from shopping and errands!  It's just so short lived before it's cold at night.

FOR THE WEEK:
Less and less promise of sun and more and more promise of dreary skies as the week progresses.

TODAY:

• Grocery Shopping
• Errands

THIS WEEK:

• Laundry

PLAY TIME (If I can find any)
I'm still tweaking the new framework for my weekly menu and recipe links.

And for those that were wondering what those acronyms you often see on my menus are:

C.O.R.N. = CLEAN OUT REFRIGERATOR NIGHT

Y.O.Y.O = YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN

HOMEMAKING TIP / PRODUCT REVIEWS
After you clean the cat's litter box pour 1/2 inch of distilled vinegar in the bottom and let it sit 20 minutes.  The vinegar will seep into the pores and scratches in the plastic and neutralize the ammonia smell.

ON MY MIND LATELY & PRAYERS
I'm praying for a world at peace.
