Turning a corner

     This week we will officially pass from Winter to Spring with the occurrence of the vernal equinox.  We have already been enjoying spring-like weather but those days have been a pleasant surprise.  Now we can begin to expect warmer, longer days on a more regular basis.  My evening meals will also begin to reflect the change in weather.  Gone are the heavy, hearty soups and stews that sustain us during those chilly and snowy days.  So here is my weekly menu planner as we await the full bloom of Spring:

Sunday 
Onion & Leek Soup
Ham Loaf Sandwiches
Fresh Fruit

Monday
Chicken Cacciatore
Raisined Honey Rice
Brussels Sprouts

Tuesday
Steaks on the Grill
Potato Wedges
Grilled Asparagus

Wednesday
Sloppy Joes
Seasoned Fries
Steamed Peas

Thursday
Shrimp & Pasta
Green Beans

Friday
Kitchen Closed
