Planning Ahead
The menu challenge became really difficult this week. As in, couldn’t pull together a menu in advance, difficult.
There were so many tasks crammed into each day that I resorted to my old habit of planning one meal at a time. Even when I knew this would be the kind of week where a planned menu would have been helpful and possibly even save me from some stress. I commit to doing better next week.
Despite this momentary lapse on my part, there is still activity happening at the Farm toward future meal prep.
Gardening is the ultimate planning ahead.
Donna has been squeezing early spring vegetable planting into every spare moment of her day. Not that there are a lot of those spare moments, but because of her foresight, we have a tender green salad waiting in the refrigerator.
But that isn’t all.
Snap peas, radishes and spinach seeds, in addition to the leaf lettuce seeds, are nestled into dark rich soil. Tomatoes, peppers and herbs are growing in the greenhouse, just waiting for the threat of frost to pass. We will see the fruits of her labor on the table soon.
Taking a lesson about planning for the future, I believe I’ll start working on next week’s menu now.
