No Menu - A Sad Week

On Wednesday, May 11, my dad lost a painful battle with stomach cancer. This happened much sooner than our family expected, but now my dad is no longer suffering and is at peace.

I have been at my mom's house since Wednesday night, so no menu planning is going to happen this week, even though I need it more than ever. This will just have to be a peanut butter sandwich week for my family.

Please look through the archives for more menu ideas, or go to orgjunkie.com. I'll be back next week.

    Cynthia, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Not very long ago I too lost a parent to cancer much sooner than expected. I understand the turmoil such an event causes.

    Know that many people are thinking of you at this time, and will look forward to your return.
