Okay. . . I am going to try this as a feature. Each Sunday I will post what we will (most likely) be eating for the week. This will hopefully motivate me a bit more to post new recipes I try and will help previously posted recipes receive the spotlight once again.
We will see how well I can stick to this. Some weeks are better than others. Some parts of the year are better than others. I do find it extremely nice to know my options for dinner before I arrive home at the end of the day. I know it is PE's dreaded conversation in the car on the drive home. I don't really enjoy it much either. While PE is more often than not happy to split dinner preparation, I know we are both happier when there is somewhat of a plan. I also find when I plan our meals we make better use of the fruits and vegetables from the co-op and we get more variety in our meals. One side note: While we enjoy knowing what we are making, we don't enjoy having it tied to a particular day.
I am feeling like a bit of an overachiever this week, so I have lunches for those days I plan to be home and desserts.
