I do my weekly shopping tuesday, so plan shabbos menus then. I start cooking wednesday and thursday, and clean friday. So thats why I post my menu tuesday.

We make a plan every Sunday, based on what all of us have scheduled during the day, and plan out meals for the week. I do lots of large batches and freezing, so it's useful to know what days we can rely on that and just make a salad. Also, if we're organized (hah!) that means just one big grocery shop.

Now that the youngest baby is sleeping and I feel human again, I'm trying to make Shabbat dinners more elaborate again, so I try to spread the cooking out through the week. I'm making the ice creams today, for example, and will make the marinade for the roast tomorrow. Thursday I prepare the pot roast and put it in the crock Friday morning, and make the cake, so erev Shabbat I only need to make the mashed potatoes, put together the salads, defrost the chicken soup and bake the fish!

On a bed of lettuce, I'm going to put some angel hair pasta, and top that with some pickled salmon. Going to drizzle a mayo based dill dressing on top.
