Looks like I'll be doing a whole lot of baking this week. Much more than is the norm for me. Unfortunately, it's supposed to be in the 70's all week, instead of the crisp weather we should be having this time of year. Especially since the oven will be pumping out the heat and there is clam chowder on the menu!

The last menu plan I put together was just... so so. The only thing worth mentioning again was the Ultimate Grilled Cheese Sandwiches. They were truly incredible and loved by all. Best grilled cheese I've ever made, by far. I'm still on the lookout for the perfect pizza dough recipe, though. The one we tried from the last menu plan just didn't cut it. :(

I reference everything on the menu with a link to the recipe, unless it's something that doesn't require one. If the link directs you to another website, it means that I have not tried the recipe, and therefore have no idea whether it is good or not. :) If the link leads to a posted recipe here on my blog, it means that it is a tried & true family recipe that we love. I will also revisit some of the recipes I link to and leave comments about how they turned out for us the following week.
