~Family Supper~
With hubby on this new shift, his
hours change back and forth frequently.
One thing has become pretty evident though.
All of us sitting down to eat at the same time
is only going to happen about once a week (Sunday).
When Bob worked the afternoon/evening
shift years ago, we always had our big
meal at lunchtime. Supper was kept
pretty simple and more along
what lunch typically is. It worked out
really well, since I was home w/ a
houseful of little ones.
I’ve been thinking doing meals
like that again may be a good idea.
We have so many different schedules.
We have kids getting home from work
or school late in the evening.
Hubby is needing to leave anywhere
from noon – 3:30pm.
Cooking, preparing and cleaning up the
main meal early in the day.
And a lighter meal of leftovers or
whatever in the evening.
Yesterday was day 1.
And I thought it worked out really well.
For lunch we made a big pot of a family favorite.
It’s great because
everyone here really likes it
and
it reheats really well.
Now, I just have to figure out what I’m going to come up w/ for today.
