Menu Monday and New Restrictions

The last two days here on the Canadian prairies have been cold to say the least. However after today it is supposed to warm up a bit.


Today we got new restrictions to start on the 17th and then another set to start on the 25th.


The first set states that starting Thursday there will be no gatherings in your home. The only exceptions are for caregivers, and for those who live alone. Since both our sons do live alone they should still be allowed to come home for Christmas. It will still keep us under the number that was allowed up until now to gather. We can have a gathering outside of up to 10 people. Guess now I do not have to worry about attending the usual family Christmas get together this year.


The second set of restrictions will be allowing only a certain number of people in a shopping establishment at a time and the closing down of various other establishments that are deemed nonessential. People here are kind of giving the government a bit of a push back and saying that of course they are keeping the stores open so that people spend their money for Christmas. I think I may grab a few extra little games and such to help keep us occupied over the holiday season. Especially if we are going to be keeping to ourselves for an extended period of time and I really don't want to stand in line to get into a store.


On to this weeks menus.


Monday

Leftover chicken thighs, sliced fried leftover potatoes with some onions, and frozen green beans.


Tuesday

Leftover roast pork (using up a bag from the freezer). Probably made into a casserole.


Wednesday

Honey garlic marinated chicken, the leftover rutabaga, and asparagus.


Thursday

I am going to clean out the fridge as I am sure there will be some leftovers from Tuesday and Wednesday.


Friday

Salmon patties, rice, and mixed veggies.


Saturday

Kurt should be home by now and so I will be redoing the menu for tonight (and probably a few other days). So tonight will be hamburgers and homemade fries, along with coleslaw.


Sunday

Beef roast, roasted potatoes, roasted carrots and the remains of the coleslaw.


Everybody have a wonderful evening.


God bless.

  1. So glad the restrictions won't alter your Christmas plans too much and that your sons can still come home. Good plan to get some extra games and such in. Take care.

  2. I hope you are having more people behave in Canada than we have here. It is a nightmare so many people think that their rights are violated by being asked to wear a mask. It is nuts. So happy your boys still get to come home.
