To Menu or Not to Menu... That is the Question

Sitting down to plan this week's meals before heading out to shop and I was wondering... Do you guys plan menus?  Do you use online meal planners or just good old pen and paper?  Vegweb.com has a great meal planner that integrates the recipes on their site. I LOVE Cozi aand their site has a shopping and and meal planning page, I also really like the printable worksheets from Laptop Lunches.  But when it comes to crunch time I like good old fashioned pen and paper.  But with a twist of course!!  I put the worksheets inside page covers, you know like the kind we used to protect our book reports with?  Print out a few slip them in the covers, and keep the covers together with a report holder both are super cheap and then use dry erase markers for your planning :) 

Usually I am neater and a bit more organized but I am still in "full steam ahead" mode with one more party to go this weekend before I see the finish line.  Anyway just thought I would take a second to share, on my way out, and see what methods you guys use, if any, for planning your families' meal planning. 

Here are mine so far:


Oh... btw *side note* those "fish tacos are Tempeh Fish Taco's from my friend Rhea's Blog
