Mom, What’s For Dinner? – Week of February 29, 2016

Can you believe it’s already March? Okay, technically, tomorrow is March, but it’s close enough.

Last week, I spoke about how I didn’t know how my meal planning would go since I had been sick and had to go to the doctor. Well, Monday’s dinner burnt, so I made something else. Tuesday’s dinner went as planned. Hubby got us Chick-Fil-A since I was on our couch all day Wednesday. Thursday’s dinner was changed because I still felt crud in the morning when I had to put the dinner in the slow cooker. I went back to work but didn’t feel 100% on Friday, so we had Hot Head Burrito for supper.

When I went to the doctor’s office, I was told I had a touch of bronchitis and would be stuck with my cough for a while. Boo hiss. I also had a sinus infection and blocked ear tubes (basically an ear infection). I was put on medication to help fight all these issues.

Ohio’s weather had been a roller coaster – literally. On the 13th, we had a high in the teens. Then there was a gradual warm-up. By the 20th, it was in the ’60s, almost to 70. My poor sinus cavity could not handle all that change in air pressure.

My husband knew I was feeling better on Thursday when I decided to bake something in the kitchen. However, I almost forgot to put flour, an essential ingredient in sugar cookie bars. Oops. Once I made them, the boys raved over them.

Saturday, I cleaned out my cookbook collection. I looked at what I had and pulled out a few to help with inspiration for dinner.

Without further ado, here is our menu for the week.
