Last week was off  to a great start with Monday and Tuesday happening without problems.  I forgot to take out chicken so it was a last minute thaw on the chicken but I got it made.  Thursday we went to the pool after school and stayed late so instead of the planned meal I made a leftover feast for a family fun night.  I used the ground chicken on Friday night to make Salsa Sloppy Joes which was a lot different with chicken but still tasty since I wasn't in the mood for more tacos.  I grilled some baguettes that I got for free for our rolls and we had it with mac and cheese because my son wanted it after a few hours in the pool.  Saturday we went out to breakfast with my sister in law and she treated to the meal.  We went to a pot luck for lunch and when we came home no one was hungry so my husband had a little leftovers and my son had chips and salsa before bed.  Sunday for lunch I made the fried rice that I didn't make on Friday for lunch which was tasty.  My husband and son made the pizza for dinner.

It is nice to have such an easy meal on hand that can be thrown together so quickly and easily.  Overall just Thursday and Friday got mixed up and it was because we were at the pool for both so the summer schedule begins where I have to fight to get time to make us food before we are all hungry.  It was almost an exhausted call for pizza but I pulled through with a quick change to the plan with things on hand at home.  The first week of real summer is starting next week so I am sure that changes will be made frequently and I might switch to the 7 meals planned and pick the day as we go along because that is sometimes better in the summer because I never know what night is going to be the night that the weather is so nice that we are at the pool for so long it puts a kink in dinner fixing.
