Here is the jest of things to come.

Monday----will post if it is not stormy, or if I didn`t have a bad day at work. Will post a dessert.

Tuesday---same as above, you never can have too many dessert recipes.

Wednesday---- will post a main dish, these might even be salad, sometimes salad can be the main meal

Thursday---a side of some kind, maybe a salad or vegetable

Friday---Thank goodness for friday---will post a bread

Saturday---up in the air, might not even post, depending on what`s going on
