The best-laid plans of Moms....
I made out a whole menu for June. Just looked back at it, and we only ate "as planned" 14 days out of 30.
Tonight at dinner the kids and I made a new menu plan for most of July. All I have left to plan is the end of the month when DH and Big DS are at Boy Scout camp. Wonder how well we will do!
I do have a few grilled meals planned, and any oven meal except for the homemade pizza will be done in the roaster oven.

Jjoj--
Bacon cheeseburgers sound SO good! Since I never know what I'm making on Friday, I may just have to borrow your idea!
Barbszy--
Way to go on the manu planning! Even if you only followed the plan about half the time, at least you had a direction! One of these days I hope I get organized enough to do a month-at-a-time plan. I usually have some idea as to what I will be making for the week (or else grocery shopping would be a nightmare!), but a month out, or even 2 weeks out, I'd have no idea at this point!
Have a great 4th of July weekend everyone! I have a brother coming in from San Diego, so we will have a lot of family stuff going on, including a cookout at my Mom's on Sunday. May be winging it for a lot of the weekend though--his plans are never terribly organized! LOL! Happy 4th!

Thanks, Chris. I know what you mean about Fridays! By the time the weekend hits, I have a hard time getting in a cooking mood. Thank goodness for the grill!

Abear,
No problem!  At least I made in the first day or so. Usually I forget to get on around the first of the month, if it is crazy around here. Then, I realize a new thread has opened...  Then, I find the link and join the new month! 
Do not be offended... I did not mean any harm or upset. Just thought I would try to be on asap for a challenge. 
Still deciding what to do for supper as it is dd and myself tonight with the boys off at camp.
Andrea
