Week 55

Christmas is coming the goose is getting fat, or I am getting fat, whatever.  The sibs will be here in a few days, so I decided to make things that I think they will like.  Such a kind sister, am I!  Unfortunately, I have been a bit of a slacker cook.  Josh has been sick and working overtime (isn't this the story of every December?)  So there has been a bit more pizza than there ought to be in our lives as of late.

So without further ado, here is the menu:

Salad Pizza

Sausage and Potatoes

Salmon and Acorn Squash

JO Mac n Cheese and Salad

One Pot Chicken Pot Pie

Week 54

Have a holly jolly Christmas!  This song has been in my head for about three days.  It's better than the horrible Paul McCartney Christmas song.  Or Yoko Ono's vocal addition to John Lennon's Christmas song ("War is over, if you want it!" - nope, not over...)  Anyhoo.  I have been on  a diet the last two months and have lost 11 pounds, which is great.  And now my wallet is on a diet, too.  I know I have been saying that for a while.  But this time I really, truly mean it, y'all!

So here it is:

Salad Pizza

Salmon+Acorn Squash

Sausage+Mustardy Potatoes

Kale and Bean soup+Bread

Chard and Sweet Potato Gratin + Brussel Sprouts
