Meal Planner

Look what I got in the mail today! I’m so excited about the way it turned out!

I made this a few weeks ago after I didn’t make a meal plan and I found myself REALLY dragging in the kitchen. We didn’t eat as healthily, I didn’t feel creative, and we didn’t have a lot of variety. I need something to help me plan ahead.

And since I’m obsessed with things looking cute, I made myself a printable to hang on the fridge! YAY. After creating the pages in Photoshop, I uploaded them to Artscow to have printed as a coil-bound calendar. I ordered from Artscow because I like that you can delete the bottom monthly calendar page and upload your own. I used them a couple of years ago when I gave personalized calendars as a gift to our family members so I could add birthdays and graphics to the calendar page. Anyway, there may be other printing companies that have this option as well, Artscow (don’t you love the name :P ) is just the one I have found so far.

So when I went to upload the design, I deleted the bottom monthly calendar page, and just uploaded my meal plan image there instead. I hope that makes sense….Basically I will have 24 weekly meal plan pages with the calendar binding. We’ll see if it helps me stay better organized, and if I like it, I’ll order another one for the other half of the year. Plus, it will look cute hanging on the fridge :) .
