Hey everyone! First and most importantly, I was able to buy cannoli at Modern Pastry in Medford, MA yesterday. I’m sure you were all worrying that I might not get this task accomplished. Worry no more.

Okay, so, I’m totally just going to NOT plan a menu this week! I know, CRAZY TALK. We are flying home on Wednesday and it’s going to be a fun and crazy week and I’m going to give myself a break and not think too hard about anything, including the weekly menu. I promise next Sunday I’ll be back in the groove. We’ll be home by then and ready to go!
Since I’m a complete slacker, we especially need your menus this week! Please share your weekly meal plan in the comments! And, if you need some inspiration while you plan, click here to see past weeks’ menus!
Thank you to everyone who posts a weekly menu – I can’t tell you how much I appreciate it! Have a great week!

When I first saw the post with the picture of canoli my first thought was, “Wow, she is so talented. I could never have gotten them to look so perfect. They look good enough to have come from a bakery.” Then I read the first few lines. 😉 They still look really yummy.
