Oh, I am struggling this week people. The days are long and I am so behind on things. There is literally stuff everywhere- I feel like we are living in absolute mess.
Regardless of I’m organised at least in what we are cooking this week and prep will start just as soon as I finish cleaning the holiday rental which fantastically has guests arriving at 2pm.
Monday. It’s pasta tonight. A simple Neopolitan spaghetti with enough to go into lunch boxes for the next few days I think. I have never had a recipe written down its always been a bit of this and that but here is a similar one too ours.
Tuesday. Thanks to one of you guys sharing we are making Pork San Chow Bow this week. The boys have yet to try it and I am hoping that it will be as successful as the chicken cups I made years ago.
Wednesday I picked up some discounted Asian pork so we are making a Pad Thai. The boys love noodles and I think Pad Thai is the ultimate.
Thursday is our extra late night and ordinarily, we have takeout but after going over the budget this past week I have come to realise that we spend a fortune on takeout these days; and I just can’t justify it anymore. So I’m cooking up some fried rice Wednesday night so the boys can just throw it in the microwave.
Friday I am already looking forward to Friday; I think that’s a first- ever but I am weary already. Last week we did build your own burgers and they were a hit so this week I’m thinking homemade pizza using my favourite ready-made pizza bases by Dino Pizzas a local business here in the far north. Making homemade pizza was a tradition we had for a long time but as teh boys got older we stopped I’m not sure why because it was so much fun.
Anyway, friends have a great week.
Deb.
