[quote=Anonymous]I keep a well stocked pantry/freezer but still meal plan. If I don't know ahead of time, I end up at 5pm with no meat defrosted and defaulting to the same boring pantry meals. When the kids were little and I was working out of home, I had a pretty strict plan because reducing what I had to think about reduced stress in my life, e.g. Monday=soup (leftover used for my lunches), Tues=pasta, Wed=variety because I WAH that day, Thurs=Mexican, Fri="breakfast for dinner". Now that I'm always home, one kid is off in college, and the other is in HS we're a bit more loose about planning but I still generally know the 3-4 things I will make this week and consider dinner the night before so I can stick something in the fridge to defrost or plan to set up something in the crockpot in the a.m. if I know I'll be working into dinner time. We try to keep grocery trips to once a week or so + Costco once a month.[/quote]
