Meatfest '09

prepping everything this morning, already made one grocery store run David has offered to make the next one for odds and ends as well as ice. Sickness threw a wrench into my planning but thankfully I am better but way off schedule as far as where I wanted to be organizationally(is that a word?? spell check likes it so must be). I am not doing any of the recipes I had wanted to try but 'ol standards are out in force, rice dish, corn bread, baked beans and ugly pie of course. I am totally cheating with lemonade mix but promise the real deal next summer! and last but not least meat lots and lots of meat, ribs, chicken, pork butt, hotdogs and hamburgers...
I am looking forward to a fun day with with friends even though we will be missing more than a few today..

Jimmy Hoffa might be in there

really need to clean out the freezer this weekend. I am guessing we probably have enough meat I could do without shopping for a week or two at the very least, we have copious amounts of popsicles leftover from last year's tonsillectomy and several tubs of cookie dough from last year's buy cookie dough for the school or you are a bad parent sale. In an ideal world I would really like to inventory what we have and have it written down someplace so I can check my list before grocery shopping. hmmm that would work really nifty for my pantry stuff too. Can you imagine how much easier life would be if I would just try to be a little organized? and we might not have 20 cans of cream of mushroom soup on hand either.
