Labor Day, Day 5

Nothing special meal-wise was done by us to celebrate Labor Day today. We just got to enjoy being all together as a family (happening less and less these days), and our living room got demolished. Yeah, pretty much:


For breakfast everyone grabbed whatever they could find and/or whatever they wanted. Noticeably the leftover pecan pie and fruit crisp were finished. Also all our homemade yogurt. We need more of that now...

For lunch, we had rice with the leftover meatballs from yesterday. We also had No-bakes. Love those things.

Dinner was early and at Sonic. We had to go to Dickson (well, when you begin a totally unplanned project on the scale of the one we started...), so we hit happy hour. While in Dickson we stopped by Chappell's in the hopes of finding some decent Labor Day sales on meat. Didn't find any, so we came away from Dickson without using any grocery money. Fine by me! All I'll do is repeat that I'm extremely glad I'm not having to do the fuel budget!

We'll probably want something else to eat as the evening progresses. I suspect that the No-bakes will be finished off. After that, it's the same ol' "get whatcha can." I'm hoping to get into a little bit of the menu planning routine before too long. So far I've been really terrible at that. However, the good thing about these "get whatcha can" meals is that the leftovers often get cleaned out!
