    1. When I started out meal planning I just did a week at a time. Then a I moved up to planning two weeks at a time and went from there :) You could do it Carla, I know cause I read your blog too lol :)!

    1. Jean, I have a post on here somewhere about it I think. Basically it is any citrus peels ( mine are grapefruit) soaked in vinager for about a month. Strain off the liqiud and use it in a spray bottle. Some people dilute it with water, some people don't.

  3. I do mine two weeks at a time but my goal is to get to a month like you. This month we are on a "no send out for anything diet" so everything is coming from home from lunches to juice and everything else. Yes I will miss sending out twice a month but with 6 ppl this will save us about 80.00 which can go to something else.
