Uhhh....we have brats in the fridge that we really need to cook so I think we'll probably have that tonight.
We also had pizza last night and fi's eyes are always bigger than his stomach so I'm sure leftover pizza is on the menu one night as well.
I think I'm going to take Thursday off so we can go to my mom's to do our baking so we'll probably eat at her house that night.
We're not very good at planning ahead and usually just eat on the fly.

You can sub brats for kielbasa in this recipe.
Ingredients
6 kielbasa links
3 small yellow onions, sliced
1 tbsp butter
1 lager beer
6 potato rolls
Directions
In a large, deep pan add the butter, kielbasa and onions. Once the kielbasa and onions are brown add the beer. Bring to a boil and then turn heat down so the beer simmers. Simmer the beer until it becomes thick to an almost syrup like consistency; about 20-30 minutes.
Just before serving kielbasa lightly toast the rolls. Place each link on a roll and equally divide the onions and sauce amongst the 6 rolls.
I can vouch that this is an AWESOME recipe. Mr. Sookie was in love with me after making it. (and hopefully before, but definitely after)
Monday - cold cut subs
Tuesday - breaded tilapia, saffron rice, and brocolli
Wednesday - sausage and gravy
Thursday - baked pasta with chicken
Friday - pizza
