We’re in Vegas right now, and no I’m not blogging from Vegas. I actually planned this week’s menu last week when I went grocery shopping.

I skipped last week’s meal planning as we were away for the holidays. When we got back, we did a lot of scrounging for leftovers and didn’t have anything special. Other than the Pot Roast I made for company last night using my new dutch oven, but we were hungry so I didn’t photograph it [...]
