For years I saved all of the weekly menus I had handwritten in order to have a reminder of what we were eating at certain points in L.s life. I always thought I should make him a cookbook of family recipes to have for when he was older but there are actualy very few recipes that I repeat often. I guess this blog will serve the same purpose and he will be able to pick and choose.
I missed the Farmer's Market this week and also wanted to go through fridge and freezer as L. and I will be away on holiday for 10 days. I think this may show a bit in this week's menu though there were several things that turned out well and which will be showing up this week's recipe postings.
