A Week's Worth of Meals

Sometimes I put my meal plan together for the week (yes, I plan our meals out for a week at a time so I only have to make one grocery store run!) and it looks good, fine, I know I'll like everything, but I'm not necessarily psyched to cook dinner every night.  Other weeks, for whatever reason, things fall into place and I am really excited for what's coming to my plate in the week ahead.

This is one of those weeks.

And in case you want to eat along with me, and because a lot of these recipes are others' recipes I'm trying and can link to, I thought I'd share a week of meals with you.  Actually six days, but you can take that seventh night off from cooking and go out somewhere :)
