Back from vacation and trying to get myself back into my usual routine. It’s funny how easy it is to get accustomed to being lazy. It was so nice to get away with my family and enjoy lazy days at the beach, lazy days at the pool and fun nights on the boardwalk with the kids. We did choose to cook a few dinners while we were away but there was little to no prep involved and it was actually really nice to be able to eat off of paper plates, toss and go on our way. Now that we are back, I am hoping to make a quick stop at the grocery store for fresh items today and to try to make the remaining meals for this week from things I already have on hand. It will be nice to save a little money by doing this since we splurged quite a bit while we were away. We are also planning one night out to dinner to celebrate my oldest daughter’s birthday this week. Here’s what’s planned…
Monday – Eggplant Parmesan for me and hubby, manicotti for the kids with a side of garlic bread and a cucumber salad
Tuesday – Grilled Spinach and Feta chicken sausage for me and hubby, Grilled Italian Chicken Sausage for the kids, elbow macaroni with butter and garlic, steamed veggies
Wednesday – Hoping to get reservations for Dining Under the Stars in Media
Thursday – Salads for me and hubby, pizza at our pool’s splash party for the kids
Friday – Garlic & Herb Tilapia, Garlic and Olive Oil Couscous, steamed veggies
