Menu for the next 2 weeks

OK......:) First I will say what I decided on as far as sweets go.We *love* sweets in our family and I LOVE to bake but we really do need to cut out alot of sugar so......

Saturday tea parties- We will have healthy snacks made with fruit/natural sugar/whole grains except for one tea party a month.....We can choose whatever we want for that one tea party a month.

Family night (FRI) the children get to take turns choosing a dessert.This way I don't start feeling deprived that I don't even get to bake things for my children that are super yummy.:) I will limit myself though (and them) and just have one serving of dessert.

Saturday nights/date night dh and I choose what we want.It is a free night where I can eat whatever I want but unlike my previous free nights,I am stilll going to make the meal we eat as healthy as possible although I may give a little in some areas.Anyhow,I need a time to look forward to that I can eat what I want.

WED night I can make a healthy dessert.No white flour or processed sugar.All ingredients must be whole foods.This way my dh can have atleast one day of having some sweets in his lunch.:)

If someone gives us something sweet,we will eat it.That isn't our problem.If a special occasion arises,we will indulge.Special occasions are not our problem either.It is the every day stuff that we have the biggest problem with.

Grains.....All bread/toast/muffins/crackers/pancakes/tortillas etc. mentioned are soaked,whole grain and home made.

My children drink as much raw milk as they want and I will be trying to add it into meals when possible for myself.I am also allowing them to have vanilla/stevia milk in the evenings as a treat.Satisfies a sweet tooth, has zero sugar and is delicious!!

We will also be able to have healthy snacks in the evenings if desired even though they aren't listed on the menu below.

Herb tea will be had in the AM when everyone wakes sweetened with stevia and honey.(except for mine,I don't ever sweeten my tea)

I will be having my morning coffee with brown sugar and cream.....:) I will also have a cup in the evening if I want it which is about 1/2 the time.

Breakfast is served as soon as the children awake and they get their snack after all the morning chores are done and before school.

Yogurt is hm with raw milk.

The bone broth soup will be from freshly butchered chickens.

So,that said...........:)
