I Am A Restaurant






Does anyone else feel this way? I just finished planning my menu for the week and making my grocery list. Does anyone else do this? I find that it saves me a ton of money because I simply don't buy things I don't need. I make a daily menu including Grayson's food and snacks for me, then I write out my grocery list accordingly. The problem comes in when I ask my dear sweet husband what he would like me to include in the menu for the week. "I like whatever you fix" is his normal reply. It also happens to be an outright LIE. He really should ask forgiveness and work on this. Of course he doesn't like everything I fix. I tend to eat pretty healthy and he wants meat and potatoes...and potato salad...and potato chips...so no, he does not like it all. However, I say ok, and I go on to make my menu. The evenings roll around, Grayson goes to bed, and we sit down to dinner. He takes a bite, I wait anxiously...no response. "What do you think, honey?" pause "Um, it's, uh, good." Yeah right, he really likes it...I'm sure.



On this journey we call being a wife, don't forget your trail mix.
