This week’s menu covers this week and the New Year’s Eve/Day weekend timespan. We are dealing with quite a few leftovers from the Christmas celebration which will be incorporated into the shrimp tacos and the lentils with roasted vegetables. Our daughter has set the menu for New Year’s Eve. When she was a kid we always used to have lasagna on Christmas. Now we have the delicious prime rib that our son makes. She has decided to resurrect the lasagna to serve on New Year’s Eve .

I have tried to fashion the week so it is back on track with our healthy eating but I am sure we will be eating, drinking and making merry for much of the week. There is always next year to repent!!
