Organizing Life Tips - Tip #1 - Make a Weekly Menu

Sure, this has nothing to do with cleaning. But, the Happy Slob mentality is all about simplifying your life, right? And one thing I find not only incredibly helpful with reducing stress - and reducing my bill at the supermarket! - is to sit down on Sunday nights and come up with a weekly menu or meal plan.

To simplify even further, you can have themes for each night, such as:

• Monday: Breakfast for Supper Night
• Tuesday: Soup & Sandwich Night
• Wednesday: Try a New Recipe Night
• Thursday: Dad's Night to Cook (Hurray!)
• Friday: Homemade Pizza Night
• Saturday: Eat out Night (Which is particularly easy to prepare...hehe)
• Sunday: Proper Sit Down Dinner Night

With a theme in mind, you can create meal ideas for each day, and then make a grocery list that contains all the necessary ingredients.

Okay slobbos...what do YOU do to simplify meal planning?
