What's Cooking At The Madhouse ? menu plan week 14


Last week was a majorly busy week and somehow this week didn't seem much better. On Monday, we had a training day at school, followed by a meeting with the school inspectors about our upcoming opening of an English literature class. There will be one new level each year and I've been earmarked to teach them all so I'll be changing from being an English language teacher to an English literature teacher within a few years. On Thursday, I went along with the school orchestra to supervise the kids during rehearsals and a big concert with another school orchestra. At the end, it was back to school on the bus with the kids and time to finish off with the parent-teacher evening. I was totally knackered by the end of the week and fell asleep at 9.30 on Friday night ! Next week should be quieter but the kids are going to see a historic football French Cup semi-final match with Dunkirk against Paris PSG (pretty unbelievable !) and Pierre has to go back to Cambrai for a day at the school he hopes to go to next year. He also has to produce a letter explaining why he wants to go there and a portfolio of 20 photos. It's all happening ! This week's menu plan will be complicated as I'm not entirely sure who's eating where but it's better to have a plan. My fridge is fit to bursting with too good to go goodies this week.

Monday

lunch- something in town with Sophie

dinner - chicken orloff and pasta for Sophie and Pierre / salmon with spices and pomegranate molasses for me with pasta and salad

Tuesday

lunch- veal paupiettes with mash and peas

dinner- I'm home alone so I'll go fridge-diving - there's a cod and rice ready meal in the fridge that would do (or there may be leftover salmon)

Wednesday

lunch- home alone again - there's some minced veal in the fridge (I fancy trying these Kofta Kabobs )

dinner- just me again - pasta bolognese (in the fridge from too good to go)

Thursday

lunch- school canteen for me (kids can fend for themselves)

dinner- giant sausage with red peppers/onions/mushrooms and rice

Friday

lunch- school canteen (Pierre and Sophie can fend for themselves - there are chicken cordon bleus that they can eat)

dinner - spaghetti bolognese (homemade this time)

Saturday

lunch- chicken burgers with baked potatoes and baked beans

dinner- cheese and ham pastries with salad and mash

Sunday

lunch- beefburgers with chips

dinner - leftovers
