We have had such a busy time lately! So, you are getting our menu plan when we have eaten more than half of it.

Our neighborhood harvest dinner is this week, as is our co-op potluck, so we have a lot of outings and busy-ness. We also had three major commemorations this week, and just a lot happening with the family.

Two of our kids are out of town visiting friends, which has simultaneously made life more simple and more complicated (and also more quiet). I cooked a dinner using only a single recipe, with no doubling or anything, and had leftovers! We actually ate leftovers a lot this week, because I was still making enough for nine, and we only had seven, and the smaller of those seven, to boot. Please pray for our whole family, we've had some colds and other things come up this week. The hard freezes have arrived, also, later than normal, but hard as ever.
