I am stuck in a food rut lately. I have 3 or 4 things that I can think of to eat for dinner and they're all boring or gross (soup, sandwich, burrito, chicken & rice) but I can't seem to come up with anything else. I'll make a shopping list and won't be able to think of any ingredients aside from my 4 standard meals. I'll spend $180 at the grocery store and get home and think, "We've still got nothing to eat."
I do nothing all day long but preparing one meal is beyond my capacity. Tye will get home and start looking for something to eat and ask if I had anything in mind for dinner. Inevitably I'll be like, 'Oh, uhhhhhh, I had a bowl of cereal like half an hour ago so I'm not really hungry.' Or he'll say 'Let's go out, I'll take you anywhere you want' but there is not a single place that sounds good enough to me to justify putting on shoes and a jacket. (ha, as i'm reading that part it sounds like a case of depression. probably a result of my life sentence.)
So maybe you can help me mix it up a bit. I need some food inspiration. What are the default meals you feed your family?

Quick update on me!!
I have been totally absent from blogging & thought I should explain. We moved into our new house last month & I've been busy with that. I have taken pictures but I don't have time to upload them right now.
Kb has been laid-off since January which has been a huge stress on us but luckily we saved money while living with his Mom! There is no work out here anymore & we are patiently waiting for the oil industry to pick back up but there's no telling what's going to happen now with our new government. So, we still don't have internet at our house until Kb gets work again. We are saving every dime we have right now.
Also, I had just finished my 1st trimester with my 4th baby but when I went in for the ultrasound last week there was no heartbeat. The baby made it to 11 weeks & was healthy so it's a mystery. I had to have a D&C last Friday & that has been really hard on me. We were so happy that we were expecting again but we will try again as soon as we can. I'm just really happy I didn't announce it to everyone but family because that would be really hard to have people constantly asking about it. Even though I'm posting it here I'm so grateful I didn't post on my other blog.
This has been without a doubt the worst 2 years of my life. I have never experienced so much stress! Things are getting better though & we are happy.
Long story short, I'm still here! Love you girls!
