I'd like to join in. This week's schedule is still a little loose because my mother is in town and the holidays -we are not in our regular routine. So far...

Tuesday: tortellini with vodka sauce
Wednesday: I am taking my ma to dinner
Thursday: not sure yet
Friday: DH is meeting me after work in the city so we'll probably grab a burger someplace
Saturday: pu pu platter of appetizers: coconut chicken fingers, pigs in a blanket, fried ravioli

I can't believe we need a new thread. It seems like just yesterday that figment started this group up.

Tripped over my menu planning the last few months.. just not interested in cooking, which has turned into bad decisions for my waist line lol.


Back on track as soon as we get home from visiting family. Ive been digging through magazines and trying to get my head back in to meal planning.

I need new skillets, so buying all new this week .. I am sure that will help spark my interest again. I am also considering new dishes. My old stuff is beautiful but pretty dated , Lenox Poppies on Blue about 16 years old, I am slowly losing pieces , down to three bowls as of yesterday lol. I am wanting just a plain white set, looking at Mikasa Anitque White .. or there is a Wedgewood white set I like.

Nothing like new kitchen goodies to get ya in the mood to cook .

Welcome! I hope you enjoy our little thread. If you see anything that looks good in someone's meal plan, don't hesitate to ask about it or for a recipe. We love to share!

It's called OCD... (Well, I do actually have it, but that was more of a joke). Really though, it helps me by keeping me accountable for what I eat. Earlier in the month I decided to eat healthier and make it my new lifestyle. I always look at it again weekly to make sure things still sound good or if I can switch something to save money. So, it is always subject to change!
