Hello! In the last day or two I have decided to go on a road trip this week with my kids, so no menu from me this week. I haven’t the faintest idea what we’ll be eating for dinner let alone anything else the next 7 days as we galavant across the Old West!

I am certain that some of you will have your menus planned, which the rest of us will need desperately since I’m coming up short with inspiration. So, this week more than ever, please post your wonderful meal plans in the comments below! And now I must go pack the car.

Happy New Year!
