orgjunkie.com is hosting a Menu Plan Monday.  If you want to see what other mums are planning in their house go over to orgjunkie and check out all the links. Since it is early Monday morning here in Australia direct links aren’t up just yet – but they will be!

We have a busy week this week with lots of interaction with other families, a houseguest as well as a hope to get into our veggie garden.  I have kept meals simple.  Joshua is my helper this week and I want him to be more confident in making salads, so that will be his task most days.  It is Daniel’s birthday towards the end of the week so Jess is organising the party for Friday and Daniel wants to do some cooking so we will make some chocolate spiders together on Saturday.  I haven’t spoken to  Daniel yet to know what his choice meal will be on Saturday.  No doubt something highly nutritious (not!)
