Well, last week's menu was derailed due to the fact that I have ZERO appetite for food lately and am now an Accidental Anorexic. (detailed post pending) So I'm trying again this week with a few of the meals I'd planned last week:
Monday - Navy Bean Soup (I've made this about every other week for 2 months running--it's so good...TRY IT!!!), crusty wheat bread, spinach salad
Tuesday - French bread pizza, salad
Wednesday (Halloween!) - Taco Soup in the crockpot w/ shredded cheese & chips
Thursday - Tuna casserole (I've been totally craving this! Why?), broccoli
Friday - Leftovers Buffet
Saturday - Breakfast Dinner (probably whole wheat pancakes and scrambled eggs)
Sunday - Chicken Oriental over rice, broccoli
Next week I think I will try an panty-only menu. I'm curious to see if we could eat solely from our pantry. That menu post will be entitled, "How useable IS Crystal's pantry that consists mostly of cake mixes and chocolate chips?"

Am I reading your post correctly? PANTY only menu. Maybe your mom should come and get all three of your kids that week. HAHAHAHAHAHA I hope you are feeling better and cheery this week!!
I noticed that too Missy. I was wondering if that means Crystal will be cooking in only her panties. Ooooooh... that'll be worth coming from KY to see, Missy!
;) You know we love ya Crystal!
Sheesh! I obviously should employ the use of spellcheck! Actually, me cooking in my panties is a sight to behold. But you'll have to wait 'til February, b/c that's my Valentine's menu!
Funny how those typos end up on some of the craziest words (Freudian slip? hahaha, no pun intended!)
i am coming to visit this week and i assure you, there will be no panty-only cooking while i am there!
mom.
I was so busy wondering how you even kept cake mixes and chocolate chips around long enough to sit in the pantRy that I didn't even notice your Freudian slip. Once I buy either of those things if they are still around longer than three days it's a miracle!
Yum! Looks good, I want some of your recipes!!
Hey! We're having Taco Soup too this week...great minds, huh? Honestly, hand me a glass of milk and I'm all for cooking up the cake mixes and chocolate chips. Yum!
Okay, seriously though, do tell about the Accidental Anorexic soon. My curiousity has been tweaked.
You are on top of it! It hardly monday morning!!
That is hilarous about your PANTY menu - I was thinking to myself - wow Mike really did marry himself a GREAT GAL who else - cooks in panties!
Kristin told me of your blog. I'm Christine and I grew up with Mike and his sisters in good ol' p-town. I loved seeing pictures of Mike with his family. I'm pretty sure I've met you (at someone's wedding I think) -- Max was just a baby and he had funky, crazy hair - so cute! (funny the things you remember). Please tell Mike HI from me and any other of the Hansons - I just love them! You can check out my blog at christine-imafisher.blogspot.com
I ALWAYS make soup on Halloween too! I make a Chicken Tortilla soup, it's the best recipe ever! We'll have to exchange!
tee hee! ::snorting::
I'm laughing so hard thinkin about you cooking in your panties. Steve is totally jealous.

"MMMMmmmm, sounds good. I'll have that" from dumb and dumber. I love french bread pizza. haven't had it since I was a little girl though. I'll have to make it sometime.
I'm with Cecily, I didn't catch the Panty ... my eyes sometimes fix spelling errors {that's how I end up with them.... then I re-read and think Sheesh!} :-) made for some good comments! :D
Yum this sounds really good. I have that same Taco Soup recipe and it is SOOO good.
Panties! I love that word! What a great listing of panty comments. Only on Crystal's blog. I love it.
I'm glad to hear you're obsessed with a clean house too. I don't have any real great plans, I just always clean up. Bathrooms are my worse! My kids are probably the cleanest toothpaste spitters in the world because of my obsession. I love Boise. I've only visited a couple times, but loved it and the few people I do know that live there love it also. Can you tell me the ages of your kids and I need your address to mail the hats. Thanks
where are you? you haven't posted since sunday!!
could you be cheating on your blog friends with your real life! *gasp*
OH YAH! If your pantry consists of only cake mixes and chocolate chips, then that is my kind of pantry. I think I will head to your house if we ever have an emergency! LOL
hey crystal - are you at hanna montana with wendi or did someone steal your blog too?
Hey girl, where are ya? I'm missing ya!
We really need to hook up sometime!
Have a Happy Halloween!
cheer up!
we miss you!
have some candy and blog!!!!!
Happy Halloween Crystal
Crystal,
Um, okay, i'm really worried now.
Crystal isn't blogging and hotmama didn't invite me to read her read only blog...
My cyber life is all out of order.
Tami
Hey Crystal, I'm afraid that I'm going to have to go private to avoid my psycho stalker (she has now taken over my email account). Keep checking my new blog hotmamashouse dot blogspot dot com, because I'll probably get a new junk email, gather all my friends email addresses, and start a new private blog. What a pain in the rear.
I did not start a private blog without you. My blog has been stolen! I did start a new blog until I can get this straightened out it's hotmamashouse at blogspot dot com. Come by and see me. And yeah, you'll see this exact message on all my blogfriends comments. BTW, don't email me, my email has been compromised too so I'll be getting a new one in the next day or two. Sorry about the hassle.
Crystal where are you?? Now i'm starting to get worried. Don't you know I live off your blog life??
Okay, like a few others you're starting to worry me now! I hope you're alright. I'm missing my daily dose of Crystal!!
- Kate
hi crystal...hope things are ok. come back to us and blog something funny...it's friday. we need it :)
i feel like i am stalking you!!
come back to us! we need you!
anybody, anybody....Bueller?
Add me to the list of worried friends dearie. I know your mom is in town, so hopefully you guys are just off having a lot of fun together. But if your Mark Hacking neighbor is giving you grief again, you better let us know. We'll come for back up.
Thanks for the menu tips. I might just have to make that soup! Did you know that I didn't go shopping all summer so we could use up everything in the pantry? I would just go for milk, eggs, bread. Thats it. It was great! I got all the stuff out that no one liked but made them eat and now I'm starting fresh.
EGAD girl where are you?
Now I really AM a stalker!
If your mom wasn't in town, I'd say you were in need of an INTERVENTION! A spa-day, delicious lunch, chocolate dessert, girls-only, movie marathon type of intervention! SHARE SOON!
PS- we'll be waiting for that Valentine's menu! ;)
what the hey? where are you?
