For the next 2 days I will be prepping for my first Once a Month Cooking Session.
Yes, I realize it is the middle of the month, but I actually planned it that way based on the times when Dave gets paid. Anywho...
So, have you seen Once A Month Mom's Site?
To put it lightly. It's a.maz.ing.
Recipes, shopping lists, and instructions are
all there, just waiting for you to print them!
My favorite thing about it? It's all FREE!
She seriously is one super generous woman, because I know of people who charge large monthly fees for (less than stellar) similar services.
So, I've taken it upon myself to try OAM cooking for the first time, using her August 09 menus and instructions.
I'm a little nervous about this, but totally excited at the prospect of feeding our family for 30 days for less than $100!
Things I have already done in the process:
Printed out shopping list, directions, and recipes.
Acquired babysitter for cooking day (Sun.).
Enlisted the help of a partner (my hubs, we'll see how that works out ;-).
Things I'll be doing today:
Coupons and shopping for items on the list
Cleaning out the fridge and freezer.
Sunday is Cooking and Freezing Day!
Wish me luck!
If you have any tips or ideas to share, please do!
I'm new to this whole thing and would greatly appreciate your advice.
