Week 11 Menu Plan

Here we are ... another Monday and another Menu Plan.

I didn't stray too far last week and instead of going out we opted to order pizza.

Apparently my taste buds are changing because yet again the pizza was mediocre...so maybe this change in eating is a good thing? That's sort of a dumb thing to say since I know the benefits already.

The white kitten is still here. Still actively looking for a home. Her and Kitty Kitty do NOT get along at all. It was the kitten in beginning but now it's Kitty Kitty being the aggressor. Hate hearing the kittens shrieks. :*(



Ok...you came for the menu..not cat problems!

Sonny Boy is back at school. We drove him up Sunday morning. After stopping for something to eat on the way there, and then doing a massive Publix shop to fill his fridge and pantry and then chilling for a few minutes with his roommate, we turned around and headed back home. Left at 9:45am and got home at 7:30pm.

My shoebox is holding 3 1/2 lbs of boneless skinless chicken thighs and I believe 4 new York strips. Had hoped to make steaks Saturday night but we did a fry fest instead.

I have a LOT of stuff in the house and should be able to make do without a trip to the store ... I'd like to avoid it at all costs since the Boy had a pretty hefty bill at Publix ...

Ready for the menu?

Sunday - fend for yourself ... I had an orange (from the vendor on the side of Highway 520) and Hubby had leftovers

Monday - Caesar Chicken Salad



Tuesday - Ranch Steaks and veggies (fresh green beans)

Wednesday - leftovers steak and chicken with grilled veggies

Thursday - stuffed peppers ... yet again these are on the menu!

Friday - chicken and veggies on the grill



Saturday - hubbys choice

Looks to be a sort of laid back week.. Linking up with Organizing Junkie ... go check her out!

Non Toxic Mosquito Spray

Image
Let's face it, living in Paradise does have a few drawbacks with the #1 complaint being ... BUGS. Yeah, bugs.  Mostly mosquitoes that can just ruin an evening of relaxation on the patio ... those pesky little guys can really do a number on you quickly!  Heaven forbid if you are one of those who are very sensitive to the bites (the Boy), you will have welts in no time. So Hubby always decides to spray AFTER everyone starts swatting the air and scratching. We have to gather up our drinks and appetizers, go indoors and wait for 20 minutes or so for the toxic fog to flat away ... only to be swatting and scratching AGAIN in 30 minutes. After seeing THIS tip a few too many times, I figured, what the heck, $5 at Walmart is worth it to try, right? Guess what?  It seems to work!!!  I need to do a few more nights to say for certain but I say it's WAY better than that can of toxic stuff ... and cheaper to boot! You must use the ORIGINAL flavor, and yes, it nee

Smelly Shoe Fix!

Image
Honestly, we have real good hygiene habits in my house, I can assure you of that! But, lets face it, living in paradise with 125% humidity can be a little trying sometimes ... my running shoes (which have NOT seen much running action for quite a while) get a little ripe smelling ... and oh man, you should smell the shoes that Hubby wears outside in the yard, patio, garage and boat that constantly get wet ... enough to suck the oxygen right out of your body ... whew! Then you have the Boy ... who works out pretty darn hard and doesn't always wear socks, nor does the Princess ... I mean, seriously, I've had to throw shoes away because you could smell them just sitting there. No one wants to be the person that people are wrinkling their nose at when they are walking by you! So when I saw the featured post for the Smelly Shoe Solution (and dang, I'm still trying to find the original post because I had no need to bookmark it, such a simple fix!) Yes. That's IT!

Rice Cooker - Hard Boiled Eggs

Image
One of the things I picked up at Costco was a new Rice Cooker. The one I have, well, I gave that to the Boy when he went away to college (so he could make his macaroni and cheese), not to mention, it was small as heck, like mini size! So, I figured, you know, Hubby likes to make rice occasionally. The Boy makes brown rice in the microwave every other day and leaves the bubbly residue behind for ME to find when I go to heat something up (I hate a dirty microwave, totally wigs me out and sends me running for the windex!) ... so I grabbed the rice cooker ($29.95), a 10 pound bag of organic brown rice and a 20 pound bag of Basmati rice. I'm asking myself now, a whole week later, what the hell am I going to do with 20 pounds of Basmati rice? Anyways. Then I was reading the recipe booklet that came along with the cooker. They had one recipe that said to add the eggs, unshelled, to the steamer basket.  Ok. That made me re-read it a few times. Unshelled? Did they mean out of the shell?
