I have fallen off the wagon when it comes to menu planning and the reason is pure laziness. Well, starting today, back to the routine. I don’t know why I let it slide since it makes supper time so much easier to deal with when I know what I am fixing. This time I hope to stick to it much better, but I will list a few quirks of my menu. Sunday and Monday are spent eating with family so there won’t be anything on those days except maybe dessert or a side dish. My menu will be Tuesday through Saturday because of that. Here goes…
Monday: pecan pie (Strike that-really, really bad recipe.)
Tuesday: cheesy steak sandwiches, homemade baked fries, and sliced homegrown cucumbers
Wednesday: leftover sandwiches, chips, and cucumbers
Thursday: grilled pork chops, grilled potato wedges, and cucumbers
Friday: pizza night
Saturday: grilled hot dogs and chips
I am trying to keep the Saturday meals pretty simple because I have a home improvement project going on that I do on Saturdays. When we built our house four years ago, we finished our upstairs just enough to pass our appraisal, and I had the inspiration to finish it this summer. There are two bedrooms, a bath and a hallway to work on. I have painted one bedroom, the bath, and the hallway already. This Saturday I hope to do the touch-up painting in those areas and move a bedroom suite from the unpainted bedroom to the painted one. Wish me luck! I will have before and after photos when the project is nearer completion.
