We are almost on Summer Break, the kids have 3 more days of school and then vacation till August… well, at least for the kids. I’m still working at the office, but hope to take a day or two here and there to spend with them. Do you have any plans for summer vacation? Maybe an exciting trip?? Would love to hear it. We are saving all our money so we can take another trip home to Germany next summer…. fingers crossed that we will make it.
My Princess got her Pre-K graduation certificate the other day, too… WHAAAA.. WhAAAAA… I’m not ready for her to start Kindergarten… WHAAAAAAA….. Where did the time go? Come August I will have a Senior in High School, an 8th grader in Middle School and a Kindergartner… my Babies are growing up.
We spend all weekend in the pool trying to cool off, it sure has been hot here in Central Florida, the Summer heat is here along with Hurricane Season…. so this week our meal plan will be simple and cold kitchen ( it’s a German saying “Kalte kueche” meaning everything we eat is cold and out of the fridge….)
Our Meal Plan for the week ….
Monday: Po-Boy Boneless Chicken Sandwich
Tuesday: Summer Pasta Salad and Grilled Pork Chops
Wednesday: Southwest Cob Salad on the Grill
Thursday: Chick Pea, Tomato & Basil salad with Steak and Garlic Bread
Friday: BLT Sandwich with Salad
Saturday: Seafood Enchiladas
Sunday: Mom’s night off.. dinner at Mimi’s
We are also trying out a new Smoothie, that my friend Pam shared with us this week.. head on over and check it out. Sure looks delicious.
Now you know what we will be dishing up this hot summer week… what’s cooking in your kitchen? Would love to hear it and if you need more recipes, be sure to head over to I’m an Organizing Junkie she has a linkup with lots of meal plan ideas and recipes.
