The Menu

Well, at least there's a menu! :)

We were out of town last shabbos, after a wonderful week with the kids in camp while the mommies shopped at Value Village (an entire wardrobe for 6 for the year for $200!), and went out to lunch every day (I took babysitting money that I earned in the couple of weeks before I headed to Atlanta and used that for play money!). A fun, if somewhat decadent, week.

Now for the meals...

For dinner:

challah
mashed potatoes
mushroom gravy
steak
roasted zucchini and eggplant w/preserved lemons
roasted carrots
roasted cabbage
brownies

And for lunch:

Matjes herring (thank you, Buford Farmers Market in Atlanta!!!!!!!)
stuffed Turkish eggplant (cute little 4' round orange eggplants from the garden stuffed w/eggplant, onion, garlic, tomato, basmati rice)
green salad
pesto gnocchi
roasted veggies from Friday
beef stew
more brownies

The Menu

Busy mommy = no blogging. :) Tending and harvesting the garden, homeschooling, visitors...

For dinner, we're having 17 people and eating the garden...

challah

homemade tomato pasta with meat sauce
roasted chickens (3! 2 for us, 1 for DH while we're gone this week...)
roasted potatoes
roasted zucchini/carrots/onions w/preserved lemon
roasted eggplant marinated in preserved lemon and basil dressing

and for lunch (someone invited myself and my 11 guests, so we're bringing a large part of it!)...

challah
roasted peppers
guacamole w/tomatillos
cucumber salad
sugar pumpkin/butternut squash kugel
any leftover veggies from dinner

And then a week of the kids and I and the puppy (sans DH) in Atlanta. Kids to camp, mommies to play. Nice change of pace!
