Monday Mish Mash
Too many carnivals, too little time. So I thought I’d be real annoying efficient and put all 3 in one post. So if you are here from “Make Me Laugh Monday” or ”Countdown to Earth Day” scroll down past the boring menu for a little Monday morning humor.
I’ll start with my menu for the week (cause you know if I didn’t post that on here my family would go hungry for the week).
Monday–Salisbury Steak, Mashed Potatoes, corn
Tuesday–Honey-Sesame Chicken Skewers, cous cous, peas
Wednesday–Hot Dogs and Beans (I know, yuck, but it has to be super easy because we have baseball practice and a school concert tonight; still not sure how we’re going to manage to be in two places at one time, but I’m sure we’ll figure it out)
Thursday–Shrimp Creole, Rice, Beans
Friday—-Cuban Sandwich, Soup (some canned variety)
Saturday–Angel Chicken Pasta, Broccoli, Salad (This was on the menu last week but we never got to it, so here it is again.)
Sunday–Mom’s House
Ok, now that we got that over with, on to the good stuff…
I consider myself to be mildly “green”. I do a lot of the typical stuff–recycle, switched all bulbs to cfls, unplug my phone chargers when not in use, conserve gas by carpooling, yada, yada, yada. I know that I could do better, but its a start. My two main goals to do more are to purchase more produce from the farmer’s markets this summer and start using canvas grocery bags. I really do feel like every little bit counts and if we all make small changes, we can start to reverse the damage we’ve caused on the earth.
While we are on the subject of Earth Day, I thought this video was a funny parody on Al Gore’s documentary, An Inconvenient Truth (which btw I didn’t love. I thought I would but I didn’t. So there, I admit it. Maybe I’ll enjoy watching The 11th Hour a little more because its narrator is a little easier on the eyes and cuteness is so very important when trying to get my attention.)
So anyway, I present to you: An Inconvenient Youth
Here’s where I give credit where credit is due:

How very organised to put them all together. Will check out the Countdown to Earth Day. A tasty looking menu for this week too.

Yum! Looks like a great menu and a great week! The sesame chicken skewers look fantastic; I’ll have to keep that post bookmarked for another week!
Best,

Conserving blogging time and resources – good for you!
I mentioned your comment (with a link) about my Clean and Green Laundry post (last week) on my Earth Day post today. I’m still trying to get motivated to hang laundry outside. I haven’t made much progress.
