Trent and Myles have a day off work tomorrow, so Trent has requested we head to the city for more rations - he says we have no lunchables - no - not the prepackaged product called lunchables, but nothing in the pantry/freezer/fridge to take to work to consume in a 30 minute sitting.
So, I handed the recipe magazines and books to hubby tonight, and we both went through and made a menu for the coming week, and a grocery list. Here's what we came up with.
Wednesday
Crispy Veal Cutlets with a colourful salad
Potato Salad with artichokes, green beans and roasted red peppers
Thursday - Rourke's 12th Birthday
Red Wine Marinated Braised Beef Short Ribs
Mashed potatoes
Some other side dish salad TBA
Black Forest Cheesecake
Friday - Shabbat Meal
Beef Slowcooked Orange Spiced Pot Roast
Saturday - take to Shabbat service for Oneg (that's the fellowship meal)
Potato salad with artichokes, green beans and roasted red peppers
Sunday
Chicken with Creamy Mushrooms
Monday
Moroccan Lamb Tangine with Apricots
Tuesday
Rosemary Chicken
Home Made Linguine
Of course, this doesn't help Trent and his lunch problem, but if I make lots, there should be enough for Trent and Myles to take leftovers..... let's just hope Stuart doesn't need lunch the same day !! Stuart normally takes leftovers to work for lunch, but with him not going into the University so much since the semester is over, he doesn't need as consistant a lunch source...
Trent also needs more stuff to fix his truck. He's got a hole in his steering fluid hose, left a lovely big spot of steering fluid on the edge of the driveway. Anyhow, he'll get some funds from the bank before we leave in the morning and we'll have to stop at Part Source for parts to fix it.
Today was Uncle Andrew's 40th birthday - we called and sang him a lovely off key rendition of Happy Birthday over the phone - then talked for over an hour - unfortunately it was his dime, as we called first, he returned the call.. oops.. Sorry Andrew! We love you though.
