I love how you are so organized! I used to make a menu list to take shopping, and then found at the end of the day I couldn't really be bothered after working the whole day and getting home late so hubby and I usually just have quick snacky meals. I really only cook a proper meal on Friday, Sat & Sundays. I'm looking forward to your lamb kofta and am intrigued by the broccoli and garlic spaghetti - I LOVE garlic and would probably eat broccoli if it had garlic with it!!!
ReplyDeletePfft, organised? Na uh!
DeleteOk maybe with food but only because I realised just how much more money I was spending by shopping daily!
What you need are some "short & fast" recipes!!
The broccoli spag is one of those! I'll be sure to post it as well as the koftas...
I really need to focus on my hausfrau duties today as they've been neglected this past week but I'm definitely going to put some recipes up later.
I need to fiddle around with adding pages and stuff.... I don't like how if you create a new "page" you can only put one post on it???? I wanted a "recipe" page that I could post on!!!
This blogging caper is addictive!!
Hmmm they all sound really yum i guess i can just leave meat out right! I need more veggies .
ReplyDeleteRight!!
ReplyDeleteUnfortuatley my daughter is a pain in the butt and will only eat potato as a veg! Grrrrr! She either picks the veg out, eats around it or goes hungry these days!
So I try to do total meat free dishes when she isn't home :)
But I'm thinking that I'm going to move Italian night to a Tuesday and make Mondays "Meat Free Mondays!" - should be interesting to find dishes that she'll eat too!
Oh, I made a yummy potato and roasted garlic soup recently that she ate but with the cooler months coming to an end soup will fade off my menu :(
