Another Monday Menu
It has been a busy weekend! Saturday we had Awana quizzing at a church in our state. Our Abigail participated. This was her last year to do AWANA quizzing, since she will have to move up next year! She and her teammate won for their age division and Abigail and her teammate also tied for Quiz champion! Yeah,Abigail and Alyssa! We told her before it began,that we were so proud of how she has worked so hard at learning God's Word...and it did not matter if she quizzed out or won,what mattered is the effort she has put into preparing. The goal is for God to say,well done,good and faithful servant. But,you know,it is fun to be rewarded for all that hard work,so we were very happy for her! But...she lost her basketball game that day...you lose some,you win some,right? We try to encourage endurance through the wins and losses!

I'm hoping to be able to make all these things this week,but we do have some plans that may cause us to eat out. If we do,I'll bump something to next week. If you'd like to see more menu plans,go here!
Monday--Sloppy Joes,steak fries,baked beans
Tuesday--Baked ham,homemade macaroni and cheese,green beans,and rolls
Wednesday--Eat out on the way to church
Thursday--Mom's Barbeque Brisket,scalloped potatoes,glazed carrots,biscuits
Friday--Leftover brisket,baked sweet potatoes
Saturday--Esther's Famous Southwest Chicken(from our church's cookbook-recipe below),buttered corn,salad
Have a great Monday everybody!

Hi Kim,
You menus look great. I am not too fond of mopping or ironing. I am learning to do them with a happy heart.
Hugs,

My family just loves sloppy joes. You certainly cannot go wrong with them. Happy Library Lover's Month.

Great menu!
Congratulations Abigail and Alyssa, that is wonderful!
That recipe looks great, I will have to try it out soon. I hope you have a great day!
What a great menu!
I have to say congrats to your daughter for all her hard work in her quizzing. I know, beyond a doubt, that the scripture I learned and memorized as a teen in Bible Quizzing has stayed with me through the years - it's engrained in my mind and I reach for it on many occasions. She will never reqret learning God's Word!
Hi Kim, Your menu looks great! I'll have to try the recipe too - it looks yummy. Your Abigail is blessed to be part of the quizzing. I too remember doing the Bible Quizzing with our church and the impact it had on me. Congrats to her. Thanks for stopping by my site! Have a blessed day.
Congrats to Abigail! What a proud mommy you must be! Thanks for the recipe - I printed it and can't wait to try it. Hope you have a great week!

SO glad to hear you are doing well and everyone seems better. As always, you have wonderful recipes I anticipate trying out. Thanks! Have a wonderful day!
I'm back....I'm so glad you posted your Mom's recipe for brisket. I hope your week goes well.
Well,It is not really my mom's...that's just the name of it in my cookbook. It is somebody's mom's,though! It's gotta be good!
Great recipes. Thanks!
And, Way to Go, Abigail!!!
Thanks for the recipes. I might try the southwest chicken this week. It sounds better than what I planned.
We like Awanas too. We have one in cubbies and one in sparks this year.
Hey Kim,
What an accomplishment for her! And to know the eternal significance of hiding His word in her heart!
The menus look great--as usual. You have such great, varied menu plans.
Thanks for the recipes along with the menu! Ya know, I guess I am not the only one who adores your blog! You always have LOTS of comments. Keep it comin' girl! ; )

I greatly enjoy reading your blog. Would it be okay if I added a link to your blog on mine?
Thanks!
Your banner is lovely. Congratulations to Abigail and Alyssa. Great menu and thank you for sharing so many recipes.
I’m slow, but I’m expensive. Finally getting a chance to check out all the great menus. The Southwest Chicken sounds great.
Your brisket sounds wonderful thanks for sharing.
Hello! I'm not sure what Awana is either but congrats to the girls!!
Thank you for your get well wishes. It appears that both hubbie and I are down with it now but thankfully the two big kids are taking good care of us :)

Very impressive that you daughters did so well. How wonderful that they are hiding verses in the hearts.
Your menu sounds great!

Oh my I just came in from another site that gives ideas for dinner! I know where to come when I can't think of what to serve!
I've never been able to make a good brisket--maybe I will try your recipe! Great menu--our church has a fellowship meal on Wednesday nights and I rarely miss it--so convenient
Thanks Kim, if you give me your email address I would be happy to tell you more about Izzy's accident. I do also keep all the information about her on the other site listed on my profile under Isabelle.
