Wednesday night - May 4, 2011

For some reason, Wednesday is looking like it will be a busy day. I have a bunch of errands to take care of...

The kids have been keeping me very busy. It was really hard to find enough time on Tuesday to make the homemade flatbread, but we did it. My little girls are so amazed that we can take flour and water and turn it into a bread!

I decided that Wednesday's menu has to be simpler, so we'll go with my go-to dinner for a busy night: breakfast foods! Now that I'm thinking about this, maybe I can avoid the supermarket still... (the question is, do I need to do any shopping before cooking for Shabbat? I know I don't want to make the mistake of going to the supermarket on Thursday night. That is just NEVER fun in this country, unless your idea of fun includes checkout lines an hour long...)

We'll be serving:


Grapefruit and Pomelit (I have both of those lurking in my fridge and it is HIGH time we finished them)

French Toast

Scrambled Eggs 

Cottage Cheese

Squash bread (from the freezer) - it's made with butternut squash and tastes a lot like pumpkin bread

Monday Night, March 7, 2011

I have been a little nutty lately, and I'm afraid I'm going to find myself back in a food rut if I don't watch out. My children may be happy eating macaroni & cheese or pizza day in and day out, but I just need more variety!

(The trouble is, that also requires more time, and I'm feeling a little overtaxed right now.)

So tonight we'll be having:

Citrus fruits (we have a couple of oranges, clementimes, and grapefruits hanging out in the fridge. time to use them up!)

French toast (I just noticed the leftover challah sitting on the kitchen table, asking to be used and not thrown out...) We eat this with the crazy expensive real maple syrup I splurged on one day. I cannot bring myself to put high fructose corn syrup and food coloring on my family's plates. that just isn't food...

Scrambled Eggs or Omelettes

Carrot and Cucumber Sticks

Hopefully this will satisfy my crew, and not be too labor intensive! I'm trying to get organized so that by the time I have to clean for Pesach things will be more manageable. (Trouble is, some things came off the lift and got shoved into a corner, and never found a real home and certainly never got organized!)
