Menu Planning Monday - Week of 9/28/09

What a fun weekend!  Hubby and I went back to our college Alma Mater.  There was a memorial concert for the man who made the music department what it is today.  I got to play in the alumni wind ensemble on French horn and Hubs got to play lead alto sax in the alumni jazz band.  Both groups were fantastic.  It was great to get "Pierre" out of his case again - the last time I played was April and before that, the time is measured in years!  It was great fun to play, to hang out with old friends, to meet other alumni (6 DECADES were represented!), to see professors, and to introduce Baby to everyone!

With that said, we are exhausted.  We left Friday evening within minutes of Hubby coming home from work.  We stayed an hour away from the school at my parents house so they could help watch Baby - we drove back and forth each day.  The concert itself started at 2pm and ended at 5pm.  We finally got home at 8:15pm.

I am planning some easy meals this week for my own sanity and recovery.  Next week will be busy too with BABY'S FIRST BIRTHDAY!  On to the plan....

Monday:  BBQ Chicken Quesadillas (scroll down on my past post for recipe - I simply add a little bbq sauce rather than mexican seasonings - yum!)
Tuesday: (possible childcare at church)  Chef Boyardee night
Wednesday: Meat Pie (recipe on my past post)
Thursday: Chicken and Dumplings (recipe on this blog with pictures!  SUPER YUMMY!)
Friday: Leftovers
Saturday: Meatball subs
Sunday: Chicken Alfredo
