After another seemingly endless week I am dying for a nice, normal, relaxing week. I want my routine back. I want my house cleaned from top to bottom. I just want everything back to normal.
This month has been busy and strange. I have skipped planned meals in favor of fast food (which is uncharacteristic of me) or to eat with family. Last week I didn't feel like cooking Wednesday night so we ordered pizza. I had errands to run on Wednesday and Thursday and somehow we never made it to the grocery store so I didn't have the ingredients for Friday's planned meal so I just decided to cook what I'd had planned for Wednesday.
Since I didn't make it to the store I also didn't have the ingredients for our planned dinner on Saturday so I improvised with a new recipe I found on Pinterest. It turned out great and I don't regret it at all. It was so good that I'm going to make it again as soon as pork tenderloin goes on sale again. I promise to share the recipe with you when I get some good pictures of it.
I had a plan for a new recipe this Thursday, but pork loin never went on sale this month so I may have to go searching for a different new recipe. It's looking like chicken might be the cheapest way to go this week.
Our schedule isn't exactly going to be normal this week. Mom has plans on Tuesday so we're switching to Monday night to eat with her and Dad has asked if we can join him for dinner on Friday night instead of Sunday. I'm actually not quite sure how this whole week is going to work out, but I'm hoping that our time at home is peaceful so that I can catch up on a few things around the house.
So, this is possibly but not definitely the menu for this week. Wish me luck.
