This Week in Dinners

I think the blog was originally invented as a place to communicate your deep and meaningful thoughts to the world, and probably not somewhere to store random things that your ever-aging brain no longer has room for, but it seems the things I want to talk about most these days are not so much deep and meaningful but more along the lines of "this all speeding by so fast, if I don't write down somewhere I will forget all of it, and why did I put the cereal away in the fridge?".  In that vein, I'm going start posting my weekly dinner menu.  I've been making weekly menus for quite some time now (seems like the week goes better if I make all of the dinner decision all at once) but I typically write it down on a dry erase board.  And then I erase it. And then I a few months later I notice we are in a rut and remember that one really great week when I tried a bunch of new things that everybody like to eat but can't for the life of me remember what they are.  So, thank you Internet for being a permanent record of everything I type into you.

This week's dinner menu:

Sept. 7-12

Sunday: Cornbread Casserole and salad

Monday: "Pizza" Salad (this is really just antipasto salad but the boy likes it better if you call it pizza salad) and garlic toast

Tuesday: Tacos (with ground turkey)

Wednesday: Cheesy stuffed baked potatoes and roasted vegetables

Thursday: leftovers (such a great night, it's like someone else cooked).

Friday: pepperoni and black olive pizza

Friday nights we usually watch a movie while we eat pizza.  This week we've got "Non-Stop" with Liam Neesom and Lady Mary.  Pretty sure Lady Mary will kick terrorist booty with snide remarks and a withering gaze.  It would be awesome if the Dowager Countess was also on the plane, but alas, you cannot have all of the things all of the time.

  1. This may give me some ideas Kerry. Right now it has to be something I can do on the grill, in the microwave or in the toaster oven..:).
