I hadn’t posted our meal plans for the week, because we’d still been dithering about what we wanted to eat. I’ve been getting tired of the same old choices, but lacking the motivation to break out the cookbooks and try new things (spring can get here anytime now, mmk?) However, this is what we’ve ended up with:

Saturday: Turkey noodle soup, homemade noodles
Sunday: tacos
Monday: lasagne from the freezer
Tuesday: homemade pasta, red and white sauces, side salads, apple crisp (Space Movie night)
Wednesday: risotto and turkey
Thursday: dinner salads
Friday: my birthday! We’re having my sisters and cousins over, and I’m making a pile of little foods, because that’s what I want. We’re going to put a steak and some Italian sausage and tofu on the barbecue to make little bites for people, and garlic bread and bruschetta, and maybe some stuffed mushrooms, and I haven’t decided what else yet.

Our farmer’s market run this past weekend included the usual suspects:

- ground beef: not quite 2 pounds, $6.53 (Rocking F)
- eggs: 2.5 dozen, $3, and pork sausage: 1.5 pounds, $4.50 (both Ward’s farm)
- tomatoes: 1 pound, $1.75, and potatoes, 4.2 pounds: $2.95 (Faucette Produce)
- green peppers, 2/$1.50
- 2 pounds of Italian sausage, $12 (Back Woods Farm)
- 1 block each of vintage, marble, and muenster, $9.95 (Molners)
