LOL. Our daughters love how my mom and I used to come up with creative names for food instead of average names. (Like instead of individual breakfast casseroles, we say Birdie's Nest.) If I call something by an average name, they look all disappointed and tell me I need to think of a better name. So to get them to use creative thinking, I will ask them what they think something looks like or reminds them of, I give them hints if needed, and we come up with some cute things. I have encouraged each of the oldest five to come up with ideas for new lunches in the last couple of years. I don't direct them, but steer them in a better direction if they are thinking of combining two flavors I don't feel mesh well. I will ask if they have an idea of what they might want it to taste like, any ethnicity in mind, remind them of the flavors of similar things, etc., and they have done a really great job. Any way, we name all of those things too. I'm out of time now since the baby just popped awake from his nursing cat nap. He's decided that's all the sleep he needs these days. LOL. I'll try to get back with you later.

My job has been so busy over the last week I didn't have time to make a meal plan.  Hopefully next week I'll be back to a normal schedule.
