We had a terrifically fun weekend, spent in a beautiful cabin in the mountains with our extended family. Poppy went horseback riding with her aunt, uncle-to-be and some cousins; we saw the “Peanuts” movie and “Spectre” (I only fell asleep during one of them); and we engaged in some XTREME competition. It was relaxing and lovely, and now we are all sick with wicked colds.

And so the following menu plan is dependent upon one of the inhabitants of the Butterscotch Sundae household who is licensed to drive hauling themselves out of the cozy blankets and getting to the grocery story. Otherwise it’ll be oatmeal every night.

Monday: Leftover chili? Omelets? Grilled cheese?

I suspect it’s going to be fend-for-yourself night.

Tuesday: Lemon chicken

I didn’t get the Ina Garten love until I tried her lemon chicken recipe. Now I get it.

Wednesday: BLAs

We used all of my fancy, farm-fresh bacon over the weekend, so we’ll have to use plain ol’ plebeian store-bought bacon for our Bacon Lettuce and Avocado sandwiches. I’m pretty sure we’ll be OK.

Thursday: Sloppy Joes

The key to a good Sloppy Joe is a soft, buttery bun with a crunchy exterior.

Friday: Pizza

I’m thinking it might be time for another BBQ chicken pizza. I still haven’t tried to make a Chicken, Bacon & Ranch version yet, though.
