Planning ahead...

The past two weeks were 'last minutes throw togethers' a at dinner time. I didn't plan ahead very well and felt like I was playing catch-up each evening. I have been rushed around with farm work taking up more & more time, also increasing my own school work load so that I can take my summer off to enjoy with my kids, along with all of the kids activities and field trips and the numerous field trips taking place here. So I sat down this afternoon with a stack of new recipes that I printed off and planned supper for each night this week.

I'm not sure which night is which yet, but here's the line-up!

Ranch Chicken Sandwiches with homemade potato chips and broccoli with cheese.
Pepperoni Pizza Burgers with homemade french fries and a side of raw veggies and ranch dip.
Speedy beef & bean burritos with Spanish rice and fresh sliced tomatoes
Fried Round Steak, Potatoes Au gratin and I've yet to figure out which veggie will go with this!
I am leaving one night free because we will either grill out, have homemade subs or possibly go out to eat.

Saturday night we had breakfast for supper, so I whipped up a bit extra for My Farmer to grab a quick breakfast sandwich each morning before heading out on the farm.

I'll post pics & recipes soon!

Friday & Saturday I ran down to some of our Amish friends to shop at their greenhouse to buy plants for my garden. My Farmer already had everything planted by Saturday afternoon! We have tomatoes, and lots of them, cucumbers, broccoli, watermelon, banana peppers, basil, cantaloupe, zucchini, green peppers, maybe more! Ha! I know that My Farmer planted 64 tomato plants for me!!! Early Girls, Better Boys, Beefsteak, grape tomatoes, Roma tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, sweet 100's, stripy cherry tomatoes, pink tomatoes, striped tomatoes, LOTS of tomato variety!

Here's my first batch that I purchased!
