Monday:
David has a fire fighters meeting at 6 p.m. and we never know how late it will run. I picked up some wonderful tomatoes at a local farm stand on Saturday so I think BLTs would be a good plan.
- BLTs
- corn on the cob
- seasoned waffle fries
- peach cobbler (I also bought fresh peaches Saturday.)
Tuesday:
We are going out to dinner at The Artesian in a nearby town with two other couples. We’ve all been friends for ages but haven’t been out together in such a long time. We saw both couples at church yesterday and when I suggested dinner everyone loved the idea.
Wednesday:
I’ve got a meeting at 8 p.m. so something with minimal cleanup is in order.
- salads with sliced strawberries, fresh blueberries, cooked chicken and poppyseed dressing
Thursday:
I will probably be volunteering at the local soup kitchen. One of our musicians is performing at our favorite Italian restaurant so I think a late dinner there sounds like a plan.
Friday:
- brisket
- squash casserole
- baked potatoes
- salad
Saturday:
There should be plenty of leftovers from Friday night. We’ll probably make sandwiches from the brisket.
Sunday:
I don’t know if the kids have plans yet or not. If they don’t, we’ll have them over and grill something.

What’s cooking at your house? Are you enjoying fresh, summer produce? I’d love to hear what your favorite summer dishes are. Leave me a comment!
Sounds like a good week of food. I haven't planned this week yet. Hoping to grill one evening.
Sounds like you have a busy – but fun – week ahead of you… Enjoy!
Monday was eggs and beans with cheese and onion crisp bakes.
Tuesday is spaghetti with tomato sauce and cheese.
I honestly haven't gotten further than that, apart from the fact Thursday will be something simple, because I have a roleplaying session in the afternoon.
I don't really have a favourite Summer dish, though I do enjoy the fact that Strawberries tend to be a lot cheaper this time of year.
We need to grill sometime. I think I have organic hot dogs in the freezer.
We've been eating a lot of fruit while it's in season. We had strawberries, blueberries and grapes in our salad tonight and I had a wonderful local peach with my lunch. I love summer produce!
