Summer has arrived in our part of the world! Finally! It’s been so nice to have the heat! My plants might not be liking it, but I’m trying to diligently water them! This year I went very small on my container gardening. I only have two tomato plants, two pepper plants (red and green) and one pot of lettuce. So far I have some tomatoes forming! And that’s it… but my Mom has a gigantic garden planted and she always shares! Thanks Mom! 🙂
Here’s what I’ve got planned for our menu this week:
Monday: Chicken Caesar Pitas, Fruit salad
Tuesday: Beef Pot Roast, salad
Wednesday: Chicken Macaroni Bake, fresh veggies
Thursday: California Grilled Veggie Sandwich
Friday: Perogies and Sausage, veggies
I’m really excited about the California Grilled sandwich! Sounds so yummy! For more menu inspiration, visit I’m an Organizing Junkie!

I’m feeling really lost this week as I just returned from The Savvy Blogging Summit in Colorado yesterday! I had intended to plan this week’s menu before I left, but of course that just didn’t happen! So, again, I’m planning as I type!
Tuesday: BBQ Chicken Melt (carried over), salad, fresh veggies
Wednesday: Spaghetti, garlic bread
Thursday: Sweet & Sour Meatballs, brown rice, steamed veggies
Friday: I need your help! What are your family’s favourite meals? Inspire me!
Okay, that seems doable, if you guys help me out! I’ve got to catch up on everything at home and on the blog front this week since I was away for nearly a week! If you would like to see what others are eating this week, visit I’m an Organizing Junkie!

Another new week means another new menu! I’m honestly not too sure what I should be planning for this week since us Canadians have got Canada Day coming up on Thursday. Yay for holidays! And we might have some company in town. (Just trying to figure that out right now!) As it stands, I don’t think I’ll go grocery shopping until tomorrow since I’ve got enough stuff here to make up a meal for tonight. I usually go grocery shopping on Monday’s because our fridge is usually looking pretty bare by the time Monday hits! Do you have a regular grocery shopping day? Or do you just go when ever you’re able?
Monday: Baked Ziti (carried over, using only Parmesan and mozzarella), Tossed salad
Tuesday: Grilled kabobs, pasta salad, Greek salad
Wednesday: BBQ Chicken Melt (carried over) leftover Greek and Pasta salad
Thursday: Cheesy Beef & Rice, fresh veggies
Friday: Out to eat!
There! I have a feeling if our company is coming to town, this menu could get thrown out the door. We shall see! If you would like to see what many others are eating this week visit I’m an Organizing Junkie!

It’s that time again! Time for another menu! And it’s the first official day of Summer! I’m hoping our weather will catch on though and start being warmer and less rainy. We’ll see! I’ve got a whole bunch of new meal ideas for this week that I’m hoping will be tasty and simple at the same time. I’ve been felling really unmotivated these days to to my early work hours and the fact that I should be in bed by 8pm to get a good nights sleep. Yeah right! Maybe if it was Winter time.
Alright, lets get on with the menu, shall we? 🙂
Monday: Burgers, salad, fresh veggies
Tuesday: Homemade chicken strips, homemade fries (oven), veggies
Wednesday: Lemon Pasta with chicken, veggies
Thursday: Beef & Bean Chili, fresh veggies
Friday: Omelet over toast
Saturday: Baked Chicken (with oil and Balsamic vinegar), an assortment of veggies, rice
Sunday: Beef roast, veggies (at my parents!)
There you go! I think it sounds tasty. What are you eating this week? Have you got your menu planned? 🙂

It’s another new week! And we even had a fabulous weekend weather wise…finally! I managed to dit out in the sun for a while enjoying the sun tea I made. Speaking of sun tea, does anyone have a great recipe? I just made mine by adding some tea bags to cold water, then sticking it out in the sun. But I think I would like to add some sweetener and lemon juice to it next time. Maybe I’ll just play around until I get something I love!
This week, I’m trying a few new recipes that I think we’ll like. Well, at least I hope so! Here you go:
Monday: Taco Burgers
Tuesday: Chicken Divan in the slow-cooker, rice, veggies
Wednesday: Baked Ziti (using only Parmesan and mozzarella cheese), salad, veggies
Thursday: BBQ Chicken Melt, salad
Friday: Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup (carried over)
There you go! I’m especially excited about the BBQ chicken melts, they sound delicious! If you would like some more menu inspiration, visit I’m an Organizing Junkie!
