I’m not one who plans out her meals one month in advance. Â I’ve always been the lazy planner. Â I think of something about 3:30 and rush to get it ready. Â This meal board idea was never something I would have made for myself, but at our last MOPS meeting, this was on the agenda. Â I played along and made my MENU PLANNING BOARD, knowing full well, I would never use the darn thing. Â
Fast forward a few months, and wouldn’t you know…. I LOVE my menu planning board!
It’s a good reminder for me of what I need to plan for and it also reminds my husband what’s going on. Â No more texts asking what’s for dinner! Â It was so simple to make – with frame I already had on hand, scrapbook paper, some ribbon, clothespins, and one crayon box {for the meal title slips}
I like that it’s a weekly plan. Â I don’t have to do too much planning…that would be totally out of my league, but a week, I can do that! Â I find myself shopping for exactly what I need for the week, and I don’t have a bunch of food leftover that never gets used.Â
BRAVO for going outside my box and trying something new! Â
Do you use any type of meal planning board in your house?
This is very cute! I love that you have the pocket on the front. I have one, but I don’t have a pocket. I’m might have to steal your idea! Thank you for sharing! I’d love to have you visit me at Get Your Crap Together! We have a Pattern Party with free patterns from the 1st of the month to the 10th that I’d love for you to check out. See you soon!
I love this! I have a menu board but, since I have to erase/write on it each week, I find myself getting lazy and not using it. This would work much better!
I have two link parties {one for Facebook and one for pinworthy blog posts like this one} going on over at Just Us Four. I hope you will come join the parties 🙂
I love this! I wonder if this would actually make me more organized…At least it looks cute 🙂
