Last minute meals=GONE!!!

After being inspired and motivated by my dear friend Nicole...I have decided to start planning our weekly menu! It seems like every night we are last minute trying to decide what we want to eat. It makes dinner a bit frustrating and we usually end up eating way too late. The plan is to start planning ahead! :-) I sure hope I will stick to it. I decided I wanted to make a little board to help me stay organized with our week of meals. 

Here is what I did...

Here is the board I bought from Joann's...

with a 60% of coupon! 

I picked this fabric to make a pocket on the cork side of the board.

 I cut out a square for the pocket.

I ironed down the sides of the pocket.

I stapled the pocket down to the cork board. The pocket will hold index cards that I can make notes on or if I find new recipes that I want to use for that week.

I also added larger index cards on the top of the cork board for my weekly shopping list. I attached it on the board with a clip, so I can easily take the cards down or add new cards.

Lastly, I wrote out each day of the week so I can fill in our meal for that day!
