Daycare Center and Family Home Forum>Looking for Calendar Template Create a Monthly Menu

So I'm trying to organize my meals and create a set of rotating 3 months of meals. I checked out the menu forum on here ... AWESOME MEALS!!

So my trouble is finding a template which I can type into that is viewed as an entire month. I have a template that is weekly, but I'm very visual and need to see all the meals I have created so there isn't a lot of repeated meals if that makes since.

I don't have Microsoft word, I use open office.

So any ideas on what you all do? Also, while minute menu is helpful, it wont tell me I'm serving sloppy joes...it just breaks down ground beef, hamburger buns, etc.

open office has one and it is what I use since we had to take Word off this Frankenstein's monster of a PC I use (it has no memory power left). I miss my calendar wizard but the open office one is found here

The Monthly Menu planner with grocery list one for 2013. I put my weekly theme in the box for Sunday.

Any tips on using it? Do you find you run out of room to type the menu's in the box for that day?

I use calendar labs. You can edit and write whatever you want using Word.

That looks easy. My issue is not fitting everything into the box.

I did change it.

Is the box supposed to stretch as you add to it?
