Ok - Late, yes, but none-the-less my menu posting has resumed! Organization is a skill I have seriously lacked in my life, and I'm bound and determined to get better at it! I believe that planning and posting my meals for the week is a good tool in helping me organize my life. Also, to get more pumped about planning meals, I took a trick from one of my best friends Kristin, and checked out some cookbooks at the local library! I'm excited to really rev up my cooking skills as I continue to mature and "blossom" into womanhood! Haha! So, here are my meals for the week!

Monday: Shiitake Mushroom Chicken
Tuesday: Eric made a wonderfully yummy chicken and alfredo pasta dish
Wednesday: Sweet'n'heat glazed salmon
Thursday: Leftovers
Friday-Sunday: Eating out in Wichita for the weekend while attending WGO rehearsals

Next week is going to be really difficult with meals because I'll be driving back and forth to Wichita 3 of the 5 week days, and I think on Friday I'm attending my nieces' talent show. Lots of eating out on the road...doesn't do much for my health, so I better choose wisely. What's healthy fast food besides subway? I have discovered the new Wok and Roll bolls at Spangles to be quite good! Rice, meat and veggies....has to be better than burgers and fries, right? Here's hoping.

Have you tried Panera Bread? I know there are several in Wichita. Plus what's better than warm soup and/or sandwiches in the dead of winter. :)

You're right, Kristin, I do like Panera Bread, they have great soup and I love their bread bowls! Thanks for reminding me, I'll be sure to hit them up this weekend, and I'm really craving sushi as well!

So as it turns out, the shiitake mushroom and chicken was pretty good - not delicious, but good. And The sweet 'n' heat glazed salmon was just ok, but didn't really turn my crank. Wonder if I'll find my own notch to picking out good recipes - only time will tell :D
