Neah spent a relaxed Sunday afternoon in front of the fire drawing up a set of cattle yards for Grandads consideration !

The video is very quiet - hope you have loud speakers : )

Will have to post some pics one day of her Schleic (sp ? ) animal collection.

Depending on her whim, she may divide them up into farm animals, v's wild animals, or by continents of their origin, or perhaps by mammals v's reptiles etc.

I will soon have quite a number of weekly menu plans - all filed away in my menu planner/recipe folder with shopping lists attached for each.

Note : these are so nice - you really must use nice heavier paper to do them justice !

Menu Planning Form – Free Download

Here is a menu planning form that I use when I’m planning out my menu for the week. The top half has a weekly calender with space for Breakfast, Lunch, & Dinner Menus. It also has space at the bottom to list all the ingredients that you need to get at the store. A pretty simple and straightforward menu planner that also looks great on your fridge or magnet board!
