Weekly Dinners

I can't do it anymore. No more. I'm done. I quit and I'm going back.....back to shopping on Fridays.

I tried the Tuesday Farmers Market and Whole Foods combo trip for 4 weeks. It makes sense to hit both places in one outing instead of breaking it up into two (Friday Whole Foods and Saturday Farmers Market). But alas, old habits are hard to quit.

I realized that I really like having a full fridge and pantry to play around with on the weekend. I also learned that while I like my weeknights meal planned, I like my weekends to be spontaneous. I also really miss my Saturday farmers. Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of great farmers at the Tuesday Market in Roseville, but I don't know them and they don't know me and there's something sad about that.

So, I am going back.

Meal planning on Thursday night or Friday morning.

Whole Foods on Friday morning.

Farmers Market on Saturday.

(On busy weeks or weeks where my meat supply is full, I will skip Whole Foods and hit Trader Joe's)

A set meal plan for the weeknights and the freedom to play around in the kitchen on the weekends.
