Almost forgot!

Vellichor: The strange wistfulness of used bookstores

Re: Menu Monday (whoops)

  • I've got a super busy week. So I'm doing spaghetti, burgers, and chicken cutlets this week. We have some left over chili, too. 

    I made the southwest chicken wraps someone suggested (I forget who it was), but those were terrific! Claim your fame! http://www.melskitchencafe.com/2009/09/crispy-southwest-chicken-wraps.html

  • Monday : Beef stew in the crock pot because it's cold

    Tuesday : chicken noodle soup because it will be snowing

    Wednesday : something with spaghetti squash, maybe almond crusted chicken with tomatoes and mushrooms.  I'm alone so whatever I have will be leftover the next day for lunch.

    Thursday : something with butternut squash.  Maybe butternut squash lasagna.  Same situation as Wednesday.

    Friday : alone again, not a clue.  Maybe just veggies and some meat stir fried.

    Saturday : See Friday

    Sunday: See Saturday
    :P

    Try putting the chicken in frozen - it has worked for me in other recipes.

  • I have no plans for this week at all.  I thawed some shrimp, so tonight we'll have that.
    I am now obsessed with looking at all the new releases of cookbooks.  Thanks, NBC.

  • Monday was Burgundy Beef in the crockpot because we had to get to a Christmas program at the college nearby
    Today we had Thai so we could make a Christmas program at a nearby private school (DH had parishioners in both events.  The private school performance was 10x better than the college, which says something about both)
    Tomorrow, probably reruns of Monday since I'm flying solo.
    Thursday and Friday TBD
