Week 672 Weekly Menu
You guys. I sat down to do my menu THREE HOURS AGO. I decided to write a quick post about my new favorite pectin and ended up going down a very deep freezer jam rabbit hole, writing the new post and updating old ones. My back kind of hurts and now I have to do my grocery shopping tonight instead of this morning, but it was worth it. Click here for my new freezer jam post, that turned out to be a true labor of love! And now finally on to my meal plan for the week!
Please note that my consistent weekly meal planning is not a sign of bliss…I am 100% sick of my kitchen, but am trying to maintain that sometimes elusive “attitude of gratitude” to get me through the meal-planning-and-cooking quarantine grind. It’s mostly working. 😉
MONDAY:
– Enchiladas
TUESDAY:
WEDNESDAY:
– Zesty Grilled Salmon
– Wild Rice and SaladTHURSDAY:

Week 670 Weekly Menu
Happy Easter, Happy Passover, Happy Spring! I hope whatever you are celebrating during this time of quarantine it is filled with joy and food.
I actually totally forgot to plan for Easter on my menu last week. This Goundhog Day life is messing with me! So today we are having ham, funeral potatoes, kale salad,orange rolls, fresh fruit and yogurt. The bread is rising now!
Not sure what’s going on…I know I cooked last week, but apparently I didn’t cook anything on last week’s menu! Oh, wait, there were two nights where kids ate leftovers and Nate and I did takeout because I was SO TIRED OF THE KITCHEN. 😉

Week 666 Weekly Menu
Well, this has been a quite a week, hasn’t it? I look back on this past Tuesday and can’t believe how different things were: my conversations, our family’s plans plans for the upcoming weeks, I had my choice of parking spots at Costco. Fast forward two days: conversations changed dramatically, everything for the next 3-4 weeks is cancelled, there is a traffic jam just to get into the Costco parking lot. I have to say I’m grateful to be married to a person who studied viruses and can explain everything so clearly. And our family is 100% happy to do our part to flatten the curve. We are not panicked, and we are grateful for all the scientists and healthcare workers working tirelessly to guide and care for all the humans on this beautiful planet.
I’m still planning my menu. I’m hitting Frazier Farms right when it opens, hoping there is food on the shelves. If not, we’ll go back in a few days. From here on out it’s all about breathing, kindness and going with the flow!
Also, um, kinda funny(?) the weekly menu number for this week is 666. Calm down, weekly menu. 😉
