Today marks the beginning of birthday season in our home.  From now until mid September there is a high possibility of finding chocolate cake.  Typically we celebrate quietly, but this week we’re doing something a little out of the ordinary for a milestone birthday.  What do you do when birthdays roll around?

• Monday – My stepdaughter will be cooking.
• Tuesday – Gumbo
• Wednesday – Tuna melts, raw vegetables
• Thursday* – Blackened beef tips over Caesar salad, grilled asparagus, grilled corn on the cob
• Friday – Bacon wrapped jalapenos, meatballs, vegetable tray etc
• Saturday – Pizza Night
• Sunday – Grilled chicken, pasta salad, tomatoes and mozzarella with basil

*Happy birthday Tim.

This week I will be picking strawberries and canning a year’s supply of strawberry jam.  If you decide to take on a big project, I highly recommend trying to bribe asking a friend if they want to get involved.  A partner can make even the most tedious task a more pleasant experience.

Tell me, what is on your menu this week?

• Monday – Vegetable soup, grilled cheese
• Tuesday – Taco salads with ground turkey
• Wednesday – Beef stir fry, fried rice
• Thursday – C.O.R.N.*
• Friday – Blackened tilapia, strawberry salsa, spinach and strawberry salad**
• Saturday – Pizza night, raw vegetables with dip
• Sunday – Steak, baked potatoes, mushrooms and zucchini, grilled bell peppers

*Clean Out Refrigerator Night
