On Sunday we had the whole family over for a Rosh Hashanah celebration. Our daughter made this spiral challah for the occasion.

I made Autumn soup and a salad and we also had a whole bunch of symbolic foods such as apples, dates, hard boiled eggs, carrots, etc. which we presented on individual plates so that each person had their own group. John explained all the meanings and we made the requisite puns. A good time was had by all.

By the time everybody left and we cleaned up we were exhausted. So we went to bed without making our weekly menu! And now here it is Tuesday and I still have no idea what we are preparing or what we need to shop for!!

Between what I had in the freezer and crisper and a leftover we managed to cobble together a Monday chicken dinner of sautéed chicken breast with a lemon caper sauce, polenta and broccoli.

Last night I put some lamb chops in the refrigerator to defrost but who knows what else will be on our non-menu on Tuesday!
