Round #1 of freezer meals for 1 done.
Round #2 can wait because, even though it’s only 8:30 in the morning, I am in need of a nap! All that chopping, ground meat cooking and the making of a HUGE pot of unstuffed cabbage made me a bit tired.
Seriously, it is freezer meal weekend. The unstuffed cabbage, chili, something with beef tips and a fourth of something chicken to be divided into 2-3 cup meals for me.

We’ve been busy cleaning and prepping for some friends to come over tonight….I think we’ll have 21-22 people (us included). I grabbed some pre-cooked ground beef + onions from the freezer + added it to 5 cans of spaghetti sauce in my big crockpot. It can cook all afternoon, and be ready when company arrives. I’ll make a salad and garlic bread this afternoon, dd will frost the cake she made this am, and we’ll add sugar to the tea that’s been steeping all day in the sun. (I looooove sun tea! I make it in half gallon jars….3 lipton tea bags + 1 earl grey per jar….it’s delish! Don’t make it that way, though, if you plan on boiling your tea….I’ve been told it doesn’t taste the same. Idk, I always make sun tea, and don’t do the boiling on the stove method.)
So company tonight! So fun! My kids will have NINE other kiddos to run around with!!! I expect all the kids will be sweaty + tired by the time they leave! (Usually the kids leave muddy, too, but it’s been a dry summer….so no mud puddles for them to get into, lol!)
