I'm a little late getting to the menu this week. The latter part of the week was spent getting ready for a Confirmation, and then most of today was spent at or celebrating the Confirmation, but now I'm ready to focus on the chores at-hand.My freezer is full again and I can't even say what it's full of but it's not dinner food. A bag of this and a box of that and suddenly I couldn't squeeze in even a frozen muffin if I wanted to. I think we'll spend our breakfasts and lunches eating it part-way (at least) empty and just plan meals for dinner.
Tonight Faith and I are having a girls' night alone and I'm not planning a meal for that -- chips and dip? Ice Cream and sauce? Yogurt and fruit? Who knows?
Sunday
Brunch: Egg, turkey bacon and cheese sandwiches, fruit and yogurt
Dinner: Pork Tenderloin with Korean Barbecue Wet Rub, Garlic Smashed Potatoes, House Salad, Rustic Whole Wheat Bread
Monday
Dinner: Beef Barley soup (made with beef stock and some pot roast and gravy I stored in the freezer), Challah
Tuesday
Dinner: Breakfast burritos, fresh fruit, tater rounds (from the freezer)
Wednesday -- Feast of St. Patrick
Dinner: Irish Beef and Guinness Stew, Irish Soda Bread, Guinness and Bailey's Irish Cream Cupcakes
Thursday
Dinner: Asparagus Chicken a la King, brown rice, salad
Friday -- Feast of St. Joseph
Dinner: Salmon in foil, St. Joseph Salad, Palermo Bread, St. Joseph Cupcakes

I'm glad I'm not the only one who is contstantly picking away at our freezer and planning meals! I usually hang a list of the fridge, showing what meals we can have during the week. That morning I pick what is for that night and then later cross it off the list!
