What's Cooking At The Madhouse ? menu plan week 13

It's been a busy old week. On Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, I had after school meetings for each class to discuss each pupil's results and progress. On Thursday, I had an hour's wait after my lessons then had two meetings. During my free hour, I got a phone call from Sophie. The dog had been pooping blood all over the house and the kids had set up a vet's appointment for 6pm. I would still be in meetings but we managed to arrange for the dog sitter to take Sophie and the dog to the vet's by car. The vet doesn't really know what the problem was - maybe polyps or maybe he ate something - but they came home with medicine and, fingers crossed, he seems to have perked up. On Saturday we took the train to a town three hour's away to visit a school that Pierre would love to go to to do a photography course for the next two years. The trouble is, there are very few places so he now has to send in a letter outlining why he'd like to go there and a portfolio of 15-20 photos. We visited the pupil accommodation blocks too and he'd love it, as there's a gym and a room with a big screen TV to watch movies and sports on. This coming week will be busier than usual too as I have a training day on Monday and a parent-teacher evening on Thursday. Luckily the holidays will be coming around in a couple of weeks - I need them ! Here's the plan for this week's food.
