So, we have no kids this coming week (well for most of it) so you know what that means? NO COOKING!! Yes! We aren't even having Tacos tonight because, when I made the menu last week, I forgot the boys and I were leaving for my parents house on Friday! Instead we grabbed dinner on the go and Darryl grabbed something to eat at home. (He has to work tomorrow so he stayed home)
Here's my wonderful cooking plan for the coming week:
Saturday - I'll be returning from my parents so we'll eat once I get home. Depending on the time, Darryl will pick up Popeye's Chicken or we'll grab Taco Bell.
Sunday - After Church, Darryl and I are going to have a date day. We are going to enjoy brunch at Anna's House, a great breakfast place we enjoyed with my niece-in-law this summer for the first time. Then we plan to do everything from test out mattresses, to look at Bunk Beds, to even maybe checking out the end of the season deals on some clothes. We may have to hit Grand Traverse Pie Company for sandwiches and pie before heading home :-)
Monday - I've done something I have never done for no reason before - I took the day off. Yes I did. I asked my friend that I babysit for if she would mind if I took a selfish day off since my kids would be gone. It worked with their schedule so, yeah! I plan on doing stuff at the house but then plan to meet Darryl for dinner somewhere once he is done with work.
Tuesday - This is the last "no kid" night. Darryl and I are going to drive over to the next town and eat at a great Mexican Restaurant we found recently.
Wednesday - Ok, back to reality! The boys come home today so it is back to cooking. Ok, not really. It's Wednesday, Darryl may or may not have practice tonight and we have AWANA so I keep it simple. Right now I'm thinking Waffles, Sausage and Fruit.
Thursday - Last week I cooked a whole pork tenderloin so I'm going to use the leftovers tonight for Pulled Pork BBQ Sandwiches. I'll make some baked beans and Mac and Cheese to go with it too.
Friday - Yep, it's taco night! This is such a great tradition. I don't mind cooking it because it is so easy to prep which keeps us from eating out on Friday nights (since I'm tired from the week by the time dinner time comes around!)
