Well, last weeks menu ended up being too much food for our new family. It seems that removing one member has halved our food requirements. It’s very strange.<\/p>\n

So, on to this weeks menu, we still have plenty of meat left from last week so there will be some overlap because we didn’t eat all the meals I planned, we got two meals out of many of the dishes.<\/p>\n

Thursday – Fish Cakes<\/p>\n

Friday – Hamburgers<\/p>\n

Saturday – Porcupine meatballs<\/p>\n

Sunday – BBQ for Fathers’ Day with my husband<\/p>\n

Monday – Take Away with my daughter’s God-parents for Fathers’ Day. Usually we would spend Fathers’ Day and Mothers’ Day with them but this year her God-mother has something else on and my daughter is worried about how things will go on Fathers’ Day and doesn’t want things to get embarrassing in front of her God-parents.<\/p>\n

Tuesday – Meatloaf<\/p>\n

Wednesday – Chicken Stir Fry. This week we tried having a very early dinner before my daughter went to Girl Guides and it worked really well so we are going to keep on doing that from now on. It is easier to organise getting everyone fed when you are not working around having one child at Guides at 4:45pm, picking her up at 6:30pm, having the other child at Scouts at 7:15pm and never being sure whether the other adult will make it home before 8pm even though he should be able to pick his daughter up easily by 6:30pm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
