Monday Menu

She asked" so how old are your boys?"
I said "um.. one and two - oh hold is that right"
yep.. it is. Piper turned one on Saturday!

using October Afternoon sidewalks

So, I took a little break from posting my Menu's.
Someone asked me this last week where I get my inspiration from for meals?
But you know, I couldn't really answer them. I don't spend time searching the internet for new recipes but there are times I come across something that looks tasty in magazines, people talking about how yum there food was, and I do what I do with most things.. write it down or stick in my journal.
But one thing I enjoy is going to the grocery shop.
I am weird, I know.. but sometimes that is where I get my inspiration. I see a new product or new meat line at the butchery's and just have to try it. I love pottering around in there, not only is it great in summer in the air-con and smelling the mango's as you walk in the door, but the boys love to help too. They find the mangoes that we need, the flour and sprinkles for the cake, pick the juice for the table...
Its so much fun to give them a little 'something' to find as we browse the isles.

anyways.. back to the Menu this week - nothing to hard on the menu this week.
Last week the freezer door was found open, so I spend most of that day cooking up all the meat.
Bonus is that all I have to do is put back in the oven.
