2013 weekly menu: week 30

salmon with balsamic, orzo pasta

i made lots of changes to the menu last week.   we had my family over for a planning meeting on wednesday and i made spaghetti and meatballs for 11 of us.  we had take out one night.  we went to bobby's last softball game on thursday and ate a quick bite before heading out.

dinners in the summer can be unpredictable and spontaneous. that's what we love about it.  although having a plan for the week is helpful for me, staying flexible and being able to improvise is key.  i've been doing my grocery shopping in little trips throughout the week instead of one big trip on monday and that helps me make adjustments throughout the week.

weekend eats: we hosted a family reunion all weekend and there was lots of food

saturday: pizza, chicken, salad, watermelon  

sunday: burgers and hot dogs

making this week:

monday: grilled chicken and quinoa salad

tuesday: eat out after water polo - last game of the summer

this week i'm working on getting textbooks, clothing and supplies for jordan who starts school in less than a month. planning for our family road trip. and putting in time for the band boosters.

hope you have an amazing week.
