twice a year we "move" from coast to coast. We have to "eat down" both the freezer and fridge. Menu planning is the only way to go. Especially when DH loves to go wild in the grocery and buy everything he thinks we NEED. He's worse than a three year old.
Menu planning makes my life easier week to week so I can keep a lid on his "gimmies". It also helps both of us gradually lose that extra 10 pounds.
