Last week’s menu plan started off on track but then I came down with a cold. Nothing serious but I didn’t feel much like cooking. David picked up pizza on Thursday night and burgers on Friday. He had cereal and I had a tuna sandwich on Saturday. And then he picked up Mexican food Sunday. Yeah, even those of us who genuinely like to cook have weeks like that. I’m feeling better so this week’s meals should be back to normal. Hopefully!

Dee’s Menu

 

Monday

We didn’t have waffles this past weekend as I had planned so I’ve moved them to today. 

• homemade waffles
• bacon
• eggs
• orange juice

Tuesday

I have a turkey breast in the freezer and I’m trying to use up some things this month. 

• turkey
• mashed potatoes and gravy
• homemade cranberry sauce
• corn
• salad

Wednesday

The best part about making a big turkey dinner is the leftovers the next day! 

Thursday

We are attending a showing of the movie, “Dolly Parton’s Coat of Many Colors”. A friend and member of the board of our nonprofit passed away a few months ago and she was a huge Dolly Parton fan. Several friends and co-workers are going to this movie in her memory. We will likely eat dinner before the show. 

Friday

• Butternut Squash Risotto
• salad
• homemade bread 

Saturday

• Homemade Tomato Soup
• grilled cheese sandwiches

Sunday

You know the drill. Mexican food after church and save half for dinner.
