Menu Plan – September 15-21

By on September 14, 2008 in recipes & kitchen tips

Today was the big produce stockpiling day! I was blessed to receive 30 pounds of pears today from a dear friend, in addition to purchasing about 75 pounds of tomatoes for a day of canning diced tomatoes with my cousin, Amy. We are canning tomatoes tomorrow for the very first time. We bought the tomatoes from Thompson’s Farm (my favorite local spray free produce stand) for $0.69 per pound! So this will be a week of more canning fun, learning as well go!

    Interesting I never made mac and cheese w/penne! I’d probably call it something else.

    It was funny because this weekend I was making my own pasta, I was wondering if you make your own. I notice you hardly make it. I’m not a huge pasta person, but my dh is.

    Really funny thing is I can’t make my own bread, but I make my own pasta!

    oh…I can’t wait for Baked Potato soup…one of our favs, but with it still 90 here, I just haven’t made too many soups lately and I MISS THEM!
