ON THE MENU MONDAY ~ WEEK OF OCTOBER 14, 2013

Are you thinking of Christmas yet?

I know it's only the middle of October. But this year I am starting my
Christmas shopping extra early (for me) so I can have the bulk of my gifts bought and wrapped by Dec 5th! That's my goal!

I get no joy in shopping or ordering things on-line the week before Christmas. It sucks the joy and ho ho ho right out of me.

So this is a gentle reminder, in the middle of October, for all those with good early shopping intentions...
Start making your list (shopping, that is) and checking it twice!

Then go out and enjoy the beauty of a mid October day!

Now, here's what's ON THE MENU...

MONDAY
BRAISED PORK CHOPS IN ROSEMARY CREAM SAUCE

CHOPPED SALAD

TUESDAY
SALMON WITH MAPLE MUSTARD SAUCE
