Sticking to last week's menu = failure.
Sunday, we ended up having Crockpot Chicken Cordon Bleu, as the menu stated. I made my own honey mustard because we didn't have any. So, honey + spicy brown mustard = honey mustard sauce.
And, we did enjoy Mint Pie for dessert.
Monday, I made sweet potato waffles using our new waffle maker. I can't tell you how excited I am to have a working waffle maker
again! We topped them with our favorite sauted apples -- these things are amazing. 
By mid-afternoon, I realized we didn't have any tortellini in the freezer, so no tortellini soup for us. Instead, we had grilled cheese sandwiches and leftover potato soup.
I had a revelation too -- making grilled cheese on the griddle is amazing. I don't know why I had never done that before!
Tuesday, I spent the evening attempting homemade tater tots. One success and one failure later, I left my mom's with a bag full of tater tots.
Oh, we did a little deep frying too -- onion rings. We were going to make these on New Years -- but we had way too much other food. They were a nice treat this week!
For dinner, we ended up eating spaghetti squash spaghetti for dinner and it was a delicious alternative to spaghetti!
My mom made my grandmother's homemade cinnamon sugar bread and sent a loaf home with me :) That meant we had new breakfast plans for the next couple of days.
Wednesday, was leftover night. At least we stuck to the menu plan that night.
Thursday.
I made Frog Prince homemade tater tot hotdish. He's been asking for it for months. It was good. I'll post the recipe soon.
Then, I made a few oatmeal cranberry cookies. These were yummy {and semi-healthy too!}. Recipe forthcoming.
Friday night after finally grocery shopping, we had Meatball Tortellini Soup, and homemade bread.
I was hoping to make Kim's rolls, but, we had fresh loaves of Honey Oat Bread (new recipe) and I was lazy and didn't feel like making other bread.
Saturday, we had Christmas at Grandma and Grandpa's. I brought Wild Rice Stuffing. We ate way too much food and just nibbled for dinner.
