My late night decorating last night was followed by a busy day of baking, errand running, and Holiday Partying (two parties tonight).  I’ll tell you all about my season o’ parties sometime very soon, but in the meantime, I thought I’d pass on one of my recent findings: The Six O’Clock Scramble.

I enjoy cooking, I really do.  But for some reason, when I get home from work, the last thing I want to do is put together a meal.  This is where The Six O’Clock Scramble comes in.  It’s a website service that plans a menu for you every week, and emails you the menu plan and a shopping list.  You can even customize the plan to make the menus meet your family’s needs (vegetarian, likes/dislikes, etc).  On top of that, the meals are all healthy (the recipes include nutritional information), inexpensive, and fast (they all take less than 30 minutes to make)!  It’s really neat.

I tried the service for the first time this week (you can do a free trial week), and in the midst of holiday shenanigans I’ve found it to be ever so helpful!  I purchased the list of ingredients last weekend and each day I made the menu tells me to make!  Knowing that I have a quick, easy, and healthy meal ready to go each evening has been a wonderful feeling!  The service costs $5.00 a month, and to me is totally worth it!  Be sure to check it out.
