Why does this peppermint bark from Trader Joe’s have to be so good? Darn you, Santa, for tempting me with such delicious stocking stuffers.
I am SO not ready to return to real life. After a few days of being a complete vegetable I’ve forgotten how to be productive. In fact, planning this menu is HARD work. 😉
MONDAY:
– BBQ Chicken Salad (a restaurant called Croutons in San Diego has a really good BBQ chicken salad, I’m just going to download their menu and copy it)
TUESDAY:
– Homemade pizza
THURSDAY:
– New Year’s Eve! Party at friends’ home
FRIDAY:
– Grilled Cheese and Tomato soup
SATURDAY:
– Eat out
SUNDAY:
– Shepherd’s Pie
I know many of you are probably also in vegetable mode like me…but if you have a menu for the week, please share! (Thank goodness I had your menus to browse from last week as I was completely out of ideas today!)
Mon – Lamb and vegetable hot pot
Tue – Spaghetti Bol
Wed – Homemade salamon cakes with a fresh green and herb salad
Thu – Homemade pizza (at 4year olds request she loves to cook)
Fri – Steak and char grilled vegetables
Sat – Chinese style pork spare ribs (yum)
Sun – Wedding Anniversary – special dinner with menu still to be decided.
Hope everyone had wonderful Christmas feasts and here is to many more inventive menu’s in 2010
