Not much has changed since my last menu plan. We're as busy as ever. Soccer is over, but I'm thinking maybe we'll do swim lessons next since we never got around to it last summer. Maureen turns five (five!) next week and her party is this weekend. I've been working on something big at work and it's almost ready to roll out. I'm still running and going to yoga. (Here's something that I learned. If you run 3.4 miles on a Monday, then do squats and lunges on the Bosu, then go to work on Tuesday and run up and down steps and stand for eleven hours straight, you will need a wheelchair by Wednesday.) And hey, what's that about the holidays?
I'm making an effort to stay out of a certain grocery store that is a 1/2 mile from my house and trying to make do with what we have on hand.
Here's what we're eating this week:
**Sweet Italian Chicken--The simplicity of this meal is one of my favorite things about it, but it's also tasty. I'll serve it with tri-color couscous and green beans.
**Pork Roast with Mashed Potatoes and Gravy--I love a good crockpot meal and even though it was 70 degrees today, I'm ready for some comfort food.
**Mac and Cheese Soup--This great meatless meal is an oldie from Parents magazine. The kids love it and I love how easy it is. Salad and bread to go with it.
**Turkey and Potato Hand Pies--I spotted this recipe in the latest issue of Woman's Day and it looks yummy. Plus food in pockets is always so cute!
**Pork Ragu--Also a Woman's Day recipe, this one calls for paparedelle, which I don't have and didn't see at the store, but I'm sure ShopRite will have it! And it uses my favorite appliance, the crockpot.

Wow, your workout routine sounds intense! I can walk 3.4 miles, but I'm not up to running!
I have no menu plan this week. Yesterday I had a stressful afternoon so we opted to go out to dinner at the last minute (at least we used one of those Living Social deals). I need to get organized with food this week or we'll spend too much on both lunch and dinner.
