Now on to the meal planning and cleaning list for the week.

Menu Plan for the Week

Monday – Sheet Pan Supper – Chicken Thighs, Organic Yukon Gold New Potatoes, zucchini Spears all tossed in a garlicky/olive oil marinade, baked, and then jazzed up with some fresh ground pepper and lemon juice.

Tuesday – Taco Tuesday – We have tacos almost every week but my son just loves  Taco Tuesday.  We use spicy ground turkey, fresh pico de gallo and grass-fed cheese. So yummy!

Cleaning List for the Week

  • MondayDeep Clean Kitchen – Choose wisely on major appliance or area to deep clean. This week I suggest cleaning and organizing the pantry and the pots and pans storage. It is so much easier to put together a quick pantry meal when the pantry is well-organized and stocked with a few staples and you can easily find the pan you need for cooking the meal!
  • Tuesday – Bathroom – Give the bathrooms and good scrubbing, especially, tubs, showers, sinks and mirrors.
  • Wednesday –  Dust and Mirrors and Windows –  Dust all the furniture and doodads, shine all mirrors and windows on the inside.
  • Thursday –  Give the Laundry Area a good declutter session. Hang up stray clothing, fold and put-away laundry, wipe down counters and fronts of cabinets.
  • Friday – Declutter- one area for 5 to 10 minutes or catch up on anything that was missed during the week. Keep it simple, Friday is for family and fun!
  • Saturday – Linens and extra laundry. Don’t you love the idea of fresh smelling sheets and towels!
  •  Sunday – Family Day – An opportunity for movement! Miniature golf anyone?
