Whew! We made it through a very hectic spring "break" & debate tournament only to find ourselves worn out and ready for another break. Debate tournament went off without a hitch and all our efforts were much appreciated in the hospitality room. Glad it's over though! This week finds us attending a theatre event at the KC REP and hosting a dinner party on Wednesday for the Independence School District's CHARACTERplus cadre. Lots to do - so it doesn't look like we'll really get that "break" we're desiring!
As for shopping this week, we spent $71.82 between Aldi and Price Chopper - for the necessities for this week's menu & a dinner party & a few extra on-sale/coupon items to boot! Next weekend is our monthly major coupon shopping/stock up weekend ... hopefully we'll find a few good sales & have a few great coupons to use too!
As for this week, here's what's on the menu:
Sunday - KC REP "The Whipping Man" - new restaurant - Gram & Dun on the Plaza
Monday - Fried Rice with Chorizo, Green Beans, & Cashews*
Tuesday - Grilled Shrimp Sandwiches
Wednesday - Yogurt-Marinated Chicken with Asparagus & Watercress*
Thursday - Potato Casserole with Sausage
