Menu Plan Monday 3/29 - 4/4

I want to thank you all for your cheerleading, your kind words, your support, your offers to drive down here brandishing pitchforks, and all your comments. Things are better. I had a talk with the Hubs and he was appropriately sheepish. ;) Last night at dinner, he brought in an additional chair, cleared all the dishes, and rushed off to the store to pick up dishwasher soap when he realized we were out.


My in-laws are here all week this week, plus some of next week, so this entire menu plan is subject to change. You'll note I've included fish for Friday this week. :)


Breakfasts planned:
  • waffles
  • eggs, bacon, and toast
  • scones of some sort
  • biscuits, sausage, and eggs
  • oatmeal
Lunches will be leftovers or eaten on the go.

Dinners planned:
  • Hard & soft tacos with salad and fruit
  • Roast chicken, rice, and salad, with homemade bread
  • Steaks on the grill with salad and veggies
  • Spaghetti & meatballs
  • Homemade egg rolls & ??
  • Fish & Chips, cole slaw, and fries
  • Out to Eat
  • ??? Easter Dinner???
Other Things I plan to bake, make, and post here:
  • Strawberry shortcakes
  • Meringue Cookies
  • Shirley Temple Two Ways
  • Fig Newtons from scratch
And something new for the month of April... Food Science Fridays. Each Friday, I'll play with my food and tell you all about it. It'll be fun. :)

  2. You have a great menu planned. So glad hubby took the time to really listen and is now helping you. Now that he's with the program, things should be less stressful for you.

  3. Food science Fridays? That is my idea of a GREAT time! I'm excited about this idea, really really excited!
    I'm glad for you that your hubby shaped up. Fingers crossed that the rest of the visit with the in laws is pleasant.

  5. Mister Linky is up for this week's Crock Pot Wednesday. I figured with the busy week and weekend, that we should get an early start. I hope you will come on over and join me. There's a giveaway going on.
