2012 Week 18

Ahh, it's almost May!  That's one of our favorite months around here.  Little man's birthday is next week, my in-laws are coming this week, and it's just warm and sunny out! Even little H is sporting her flip flops!


As for meals, I'm making plans, but things might all change once our family is here...
Sunday - red curry tofu and vegetables (with trader joe's sauce, so good)
Monday - grilled sausages and hot dogs with a salad
Tuesday - food truck night, some thing easy for the kids beforehand.  maybe grilled cheese and dip
Wednesday - Pesto pasta, homemade bread, salad and veggies for dipping
Thursday - grilled salmon and asparagus
Friday - pizza!
Saturday - cinco de mayo fun!  grilled fish tacos and margaritas!

2012 Week 14

Whew!  April, wow!  Last week was spring break and I was just back from a weekend meet in LA, so things were a mess.  Literally and figuratively!  Total disaster of a house and no plan for meals at all, it really just reminded me how much I hate not having dinners planned, it's such a good habit.
So...
Sunday - grilled steak (for scott) and salmon burgers for me and the kids, yummy grilled veg
Monday - kitchen sink quesadillas
Tuesday - soup and homemade bread
Wednesday - pasta with arugula and white beans
Thursday - chipotle sweet potato and black bean tacos
Friday - homemade pizza
Saturday - summer corn cakes
