Meal Plan Monday #318

The semester is winding down, but there is much to be done. I ALWAYS think of Robert Frost at the end of each semester, and this stanza from "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening":

The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,

But I have promises to keep,

And miles to go before I sleep,

And miles to go before I sleep.

Meal Plan Monday #309

I cooked pork chops at home last week, and they were delicious; however, I didn't want to eat any of the leftovers. It's not easy in our small town to find packages of meat for two, and I'm not good about using meat that goes into the freezer. And we're still trying to minimize our meat intake, particularly at home. So I think I'll just go back to a more pescatarian approach at home.

Meal Plan Monday #15

Our range is fixed! It was not installed properly, and the power cord burned out. The repairman fixed it in about half an hour after having to go get the part, and the home warranty covered most of the cost, so we are back in business. I baked some cookies Thursday night after the oven got fixed. They were chocolate chip with M&Ms.
