January 2011 Menu

Well, well. Before we know it, 2011 will be here! I hope each of you had a blessed Christmas and that you were able to spend some time with family and friends! 2010 has been quite the year for my family, so we are really looking forward to a new year! With a new year, comes New Year's Resolutions. Why not add this to your list: Save $$$ by eating out less and cooking for your family instead. "It's in the Bag!" is here to help you achieve this goal! We know that not everyone is born a chef, but we're determined to bring out the inner-cook in everyone! As we enter 2011, "It's in the Bag!" enters into it's THIRD year of cooking with you. I can't believe we've been at this for more than 30 months, and have had more than 500 orders!!! Each month we have our "regular" customers who wouldn't know what to do without us. And every month we have our faithful customers refer us to their friends. We love spreading the stress-free way of preparing dinner. Here is the menu and the rest of the information follows.

RSVPs for the month are due January 7th. Due to recent health issues that are being taken care of, and my son's 2nd birthday party this month, we are NOT having a party. All meals will be made ahead of time and ready for pick up by the 21st. I plan on being home on the 21st, 22nd (minus the hours we are hosting Drew's party), and the 23rd (minus the time we're at church) for meal pick-up. Please let me know NO LATER than NEXT FRIDAY if you are ordering the January meals. (If you cancel your order anytime after the deadline, you are financially responsible for your meals. We will do our best to sell them, but cannot guarantee anything!) Remember, only order the meals that your family will eat. Feel free to make your menu of ten meals using any combination of the choices above. A standard order includes one of every meal listed above. If you would like to substitute any of the meals on the list for additional orders of the meal marked with * (Herbed Flank Steak), please add $2 per order. If you would like to order more than ten meals, add $12 per meal (or $14 for the Herbed Flank Steak).The cost is $155...and there's nothing else you need to provide!
