I'm sure I've made it painfully obvious up to this point that I am *not* a fan of cooking.  I cook because my family (i.e., the kids) have to eat.  Let's face it – the hubs and I could get take out or swing through the drive-thru at Taco Bell if it were just us two.  Kinda like in the olden days–before we had kids.  But seeing as how we actually relish family dinnertime, meals must be planned, groceries must be bought, and dinner must be made. 

So, you may find it quite surprising that this week I will be trying {drumroll} not one…..but TWO new recipes.  Both of them will be simply tweaks to current recipes in my repertoire, but I am nervous nonetheless.  I guess it's a good thing there are several backup plans (i.e., fast food joints) just around the corner.

Here goes nuthin'!

 Monday: Happy Chinese New Year!  2012 is the Year of the Dragon!  I'll be making some chicken lo mein and picking up a few takeout crab rangoons from a local Chinese restaurant! 

Tuesday:  Baked spaghetti, garlic bread.

Wednesday:  Ground turkey and beef meatloaf {this is one of the new recipes I am giving a go!}, rice, steamed broccoli.  I should mention that it was actually on last week's menu but was bumped and we made something else instead.

Thursday:  Slow cooker barbecue country style pork ribs  {this is the second of the new recipes I am trying this week. Hoping to share the yumminess with you soon!}, baked potato, veggies.

Friday:  My oven baked chicken, rice, cheddar baked biscuits

Saturday: We've been invited over for a casual dinner at a friend's house.  Looking forward to heading there right after a basketball game!

Sunday – Out.
