It’s been a workin’ weekend. Eric is of course studying like a mad man, and listening to classical music, loudly, and I’ve been running around, writing, laundry, gifting, traveling, church, shopping, among other things.
Friday night my bros DJ and Ondrej came over and hung out with me.
We hit up a local favorite, Prato on Park Ave, and then walked down to The Wine Room for drinks and good conversation. We ended the night at Yogurtland, only the best fro-yo.
I sat down this afternoon to look at the week ahead, plan our meals, and hit the grocery store. Here’s what’s on the menu this week.
Monday: Memorial Day BBQ + Grilled Veggies
Tuesday: Eggplant Lasagna
Wednesday: Chicken Vegetable Stir Fry
Thursday: Salad with Grilled Tilapia and Avocado Dressing
Friday: Soup + Sandwiches
Saturday: Leftovers

Sounds like a fun and delicious weekend! Your menu plan looks great too! I usually do mine over the weekend, but last week/this week are crazy weeks with lots of parties/events to attend, and a couple of travel days too, so the two nights I am home this week will be leftovers {or cold cereal!} Hope you have a great week!

I ordered the Funghi! Have you tried it?? It seems like on that you would appreciate…wild mushrooms, caramelized onions, arugula, with a balsamic reduction… talkin' about flavor!
