So, we pretty much stuck to the menu, except we ate in all week b/c we are planning 2 meals out this week (so we "banked" one
) - one family meal out and one date night...and that meant we didn't have chicken last week...so, I'm craving chicken now, and got some beautiful boneless skinless thighs and breast fillets, so they will feature promptly early in the week
...and we'll be making orange tamarind ginger sugar cookies, b/c well, I got tamarind paste, and my DD and I need to play with it...
