Last week -- wull -- that was a pretty gross week of eating. In theory it seemed okay, but each day as I obediently followed the menu plan I wished I was making something else. What, I couldn't say, but not what was prepared. I think the recipes seemed appealing on paper, but ingesting them did not set well. Like, the beef strogie recipe was fine and I was glad we had a crock-pot meal so I didn't have to think about it all day -- but by dinner time, after spending the day outdoors, I was more in the mood for something on the grill. So this menu-planning has it's pros and cons. This past Sunday was gorgeous and by then I'd had it with being a slave to some "menu". We had a picnic at the park with the cuz's instead. That was fun. And tasty. Clara had Cheetos for dinner.
Fingers crossed for this week:
Monday - Tacos (Briton -- after enduring new recipe after new recipe: "What happened to the tried and true?" So we had tacos).
Tuesday - Chicken Nuggets, asparagus, etc (except for Clara who only ate condiments)
Wednesday - Mediterranean Pork with Couscous (since we didn't make it Sunday)
Thursday - Super Date. The kids can eat cereal or something.
Friday - Minestrone soup
Saturday - something downtown with the kids since we'll be out that way.
Sunday - picnic with the cuz's (why mess with success?)
