Apparently this is the week of potatoes! I never intend for things to happen this way, but it often seems like I’ll plan the week’s meals and then notice we’re having pasta every day, or that five nights use chicken, or, in this case, lots of potatoes. Thankfully we all like these things, so it’s all good!
I have found myself in an interesting position with recipes. Since I started this blog in May I have gone through most all of my pre-blog recipes. I think I’ve got 10-20 recipes left in my collection that I’ve yet to write about. This means that I’m able to turn to my cookbooks and the internet more and more to find new recipes to try and post, something I find very exciting!
This week I turned to the Cook’s Country 2007 Annual for inspiration and recipes from that tome are featured in meals 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. The 7th meal is Game Day and I’m planning a Ham Feast to celebrate the New Year!
In non-menu news, Art is working on a very exciting addition to the blog this week, so keep your eyes peeled :)
