Happy Monday everyone, this is what's on the menu for this week. As always remember that some days I switch meals around or end up not making them if something comes up, but for the most part I stick to everything on here INCLUDING breakfast and lunch.

If you're interested in playing along or just checking out what everyone is cooking, run on over to "I'm an Organizing Junkie".

I've recently picked up a LOT of new cookbooks so I'll be trying some new recipes again this week.

  3. Can I hire you to be my personal chef?!? ;) I wish I had more time to cook up such lovely meals but sad to say that I spend more time away from the house than most people. Hard to find time to whip something extravagant together.
