Today marks the beginning of birthday season in our home. From now until mid September there is a high possibility of finding chocolate cake. Typically we celebrate quietly, but this week we’re doing something a little out of the ordinary for a milestone birthday. What do you do when birthdays roll around?
- Monday – My stepdaughter will be cooking.
- Tuesday – Gumbo
- Wednesday – Tuna melts, raw vegetables
- Thursday* – Blackened beef tips over Caesar salad, grilled asparagus, grilled corn on the cob
- Friday – Bacon wrapped jalapenos, meatballs, vegetable tray etc
- Saturday – Pizza Night
- Sunday – Grilled chicken, pasta salad, tomatoes and mozzarella with basil
*Happy birthday Tim.
Your menu looks wonderful. My birthday was yesterday. We just celebrate it quietly with our best friends and my family. My friend made me the best peanut butter pie ever. I hope your seasons of birthdays are wonderful.
Blessings,
Kim
Your menu sounds great! I’ll be trying the pasta salad when I get the chance.
Happy birthdays to all involved!
Happy Birthday to all those Leo’s ( oh, and I suppose there must be a Cancer, huh?) in your household! My Birthday will be coming up soon, and we’ll just be grilling some shrimp and my honey will bake me a nut free chocolate cake. Those are hard to find since most chocolate is “made in a factory that also processes peanuts…” and must be done at home due to a peanut allergy in our house. I am VERY excited! I don’t make a menu in advance quite as thoroughly as you do. Maybe I should try that. I have posted some of my recipes, if you’d like to see them. go to http://blog.angieschleicher.com/
I will continue to post more recipes there, complete with photos, so come by anytime!
It’s birthday season for us, too–Between July 25th and October 25th there are 14 birthdays in our families (5 in the last 3 days of July alone). We usually get together with extended families once a month and celebrate all birthdays that will happen before the next get-together.
