meal plan – october 29, 2012
I am spending most of my energy thinking about the special that we have coming up – my husband’s birthday (which I did such a poor job of celebrating last year that I had to call for a do-over) and one of our favorite fall traditions – Halloween! I have no idea what I will […]

Dude. Summer break is officially over. I deposited her at school this morning and the reality of filling my days starts now. Took the morning to get some work done after what I hope is the first of many early morning breakfast dates with him. Hard to switch gears so I am finding my way […]

It feels good to be able to commit my meal plan to virtual paper this weekend. It’s been a few weeks and that is a far longer than I care to wing it for. Sitting a little more still this coming week after weeks of running around so I am hoping to spend some more […]

Saturday is when I tend to have time to think through what to eat in the coming days and subsequent week. I bust out the vegetarian cookbooks, visit the downtown library stacks for inspiration and check out what is buried in my Evernote stash of bookmarked recipes. I also try to keep my actual calendar […]

Craving lots of my mama’s food this week so I’m throwing in the Seitan con Papas and Tamales for a bit of home with a vegetarian twist. I’ve only planned through Friday, but am hoping to get some inspiration for those meals as the week progresses. Monday Breakfast: Tacos! Packed Lunch: Leftover Black Bean Veggie […]
Moremeal plan | week of july 11, 2011
We have seven weeks left of our summer break which means that it is time for me to step it up. I have ingredients for a full seven meals on hand right now and I am hoping that I can crank through it all by the middle of next week (at the latest) and have lots of leftovers on hand for lunches. Also hoping that I can whip my breakfast planning back into shape.
