What a weekend we have had! Ice storms, stomach flu, runny noses, coughing, more snow to shovel, fevers, several power outages and did I mention lots of coughing, occasional moans from the two adults, several games of Clue and Sorry and lots of this was accomplished.
With all that, I think secretly aside from not feeling well, we all wish we could stay in this place a little longer. The kids wanted the power to stay off so that we could continue to play and read by oil lamp and candles. The days are long and uninterrupted by schedules and we are enjoying being together.
Amazingly, it is Monday and I have a plan for the week of what to prepare for my family. Last week, I was planning to make the Swiss Chicken Bake and I had mistakenly taken out a bag of chicken wings from the freezer instead of chicken breasts, so we had barbeque wings. So, I am going to try the recipe this week.
Monday: Swiss Chicken Bake and salad

It's no fun to think about food when you aren't feeling well. Great job getting those meals planned out for the week. Yum! I hope you are all on the mend.
Have a great week.

I love slow cooker Chuck Roast...but I'm down to my last roasts so I'm saving them.
Great menu!
Wow, what a crazy weekend you had. Funny, though, how times like these can bring your family closer together.
I hope you have a good week ... enjoy the Swiss Chicken Bake :) !! Your menu looks fabulous!
You did have an eventful weekend! I love potato soup--makes my mouth water just thinking about it! Yummy menu plan! god bless!
You definitely have had quite a week. I am glad everyone is on the upswing.
Great menu--chili and cornbread are favorites here.
I love how you put a positive "spin" on everything your family has had going on. Oh, my! I really hope you're feeling better. Your menu sounds great! Have a blessed (and better!) week, friend.
These all look very good. I hope everyone is feeling better at your place.
The being sick doesn't sound fun but the games and reading by oil lamp sound like it just might have been a good time. Sorta like a "little house on the prairie" kind of thing happening.
Hope everyone is feeling better soon. Your menu sounds good!
Wow--I think I'm inviting myself over this week. It all sounds good.
I hope everyone is feeling much better soon. Wintertime seems to bring along colds and flu. Ugh!
it was really nice of God to slow us all down and focus on the joy of being together, although i am really going to miss the bible study tomorrow. it is great...
Our kids didn't want the electricity on either.
I love (there's that word again) seeing what you are serving up at the table. We enjoy our time around the table, too. With my job so crazy, I am looking for some good crockpot recipes. I would love to see some if you have any family pleasers.
I sure hope your family is on the mend now!
And that Fettuccine Alfredo and Swiss Chicken bake sound delicious! I usually open a box of pasta-roni, -LOL- but I'd love to start making more meals from scratch!
Blessings!
yummy yummy yummy.
