Menu plan 8 Sept 08

My challenge to myself this week is to actually stick to this plan, just for a change you understand. Last week's plan suffered the usual fate of changed plans and tail end of the week exhaustion. I still didn't get my Japanese takeaway. I wound up cooking a huge beef casserole in the crockpot on Saturday to use up some meat from the freezer that was looking a bit worse for wear (freezer burn), we'll be having that re-heated on Tuesday, and the Father's Day baked dinner turned into a visit to Flavour of Brazil (which I discovered through this post on Grab Your Fork) with my brother and his family and both my mum and dad. My parents are separated but quite happy to be together for family stuff, in fact Dad was the one who invited Mum along to his Father's Day outing.
