Meal Planning Monday

This is a busy week as we will be getting the house ready for the onslaught of company this weekend. Saturday, Lucas is getting baptized and the "after party" will be at our house. In light of this exciting event, I am planning easy meals for the week so I can spend more time prepping the house than in the kitchen. And to top it off, Doug is using the second 1/2 of his paternity leave this week so he will be home with us. (Now I can be happy he only used 1 week of his leave when Lucas was born)

Sunday - Sloppy Joes, Ranch style beans
Monday - Root Beer Pulled Pork (Crock Pot)
Tuesday - Pulled pork sandwiches, potato salad, fruit salad
Wednesday - Fish Tacos
Thursday - Sandwiches, chips
Friday - TBD
Saturday - Lucas' Christening

Where to Find Fridays

Have you ever wanted/needed to buy something, but you had no idea where to find that item? Of course you can pretty much buy anything online, but even then it may be difficult to locate exactly what your looking for, and sometimes you would prefer to find it in a brick and mortar store so you can have it NOW.

This happens to me all the time which is why I'm starting a new weekly feature,"Where to Find Fridays". My goal is 1) to have a new feature each week 2) that my blog readers will submit ideas/topics on things they would like to locate, and 3) that my blog readers will submit answers on where they think an item can be found. I, of course will do my own part in trying to locate items as well. I have no idea how this will turn out, but it should be fun.

So, without further adieu, this weeks topic is:

Refrigerator Magnets

Not just any magnets... I'm looking for 1 of two types: The colorful ABC magnets or the conversation magnets (where you can piece several different words together to create funny sentences).

Let me know your thoughts!
