Menu Planning Monday


The summer is just flying by. The kids go back to school in one month. It's too fast. It's been good to have really simple meals, even though we are often repeating. The heat is such a sapper of energy that it is hard to spend too much time in the kitchen. There are only 3 weeks left until my son leaves for the next 2 years. So, the days are getting busy as we have so much left to do.

Monday:steak fajitas
Tuesday: grilled shrimp (moved from last week)
Wednesday: BBQ chicken salad w/cilantro ranch dressing
Thursday:leftovers
Friday: salmon cakes w/lemon aioli
Saturday: date night
Sunday: Dinner at Chef Brad's

Menu Planning Monday




Happy Independence Day! We are still on our trip. We don't miss being around 120 degree heat, but we will have to go back. We had great fun at the beach and plan on going back today. It seems weird to plan for the week while I am on vacation, but I know it needs to be done so life can run smoothly when we get home.

Monday:dinner at the beach
Tuesday:takeout on our way home
Wednesday: chicken tacos
Thursday: spinach ravioli
Friday: burgers and hot dogs
Saturday: date night
Sunday: grilled shrimp
