I put together our menu and feel like I'm in a funk. We aren't being very adventurous this month and I think it's a little starch-heavy. Chances are I won't keep a tight ship on our meals and we'll eat very different from what's planned. Ha! Isn't that life though? You can make plans down to the last detail and life will completely change those plans.

Leave a comment with one of the meals you've planned for your week/month! Maybe you'll spark something in me and November will be a month of crazy new recipes to try.
