I did great with planning and execution this week so flying on that high I made a really simple menu in hopes that I can continue that trend (I always feel better if I manage to cook and eat all the things on my list). And yes, I am making scallion pancakes again! They were so good that both of us agreed we should eat more of them right away.

I’m behind with posting everything but I got some important stuff done this weekend so I’ve already moved on from forgiving myself. I wonder if it’d be worth it to try and plan out an entire month (broken in to week of course) or if that would just make the first week of every month a mess? Eh?

We got a new refrigerator and it’s a new lease on food because there’s suddenly enough space to actually freeze things, keep leftovers, and so on. This week is a pretty aggressive menu and a lot of groceries but somehow it’s one of those weeks where we are out of every food and it’ll be good to stock up going in to August I think.
