Meal Plan: February 1 - February 7

It's Super Bowl Sunday!  As Patriots fans we are very excited for tonight's game!  I am also celebrating the fact that January is over!  Whew! I thought it was supposed to be March that came in like a lion.  January made me want to run and hide back in 2014.  Even though it is a Hallmark holiday, I am going to take comfort in the fact that Valentine's Day is this month and focus on doing all things will love... and joy and understanding.
