Even though I'm feeling that way, I'm not gonna say it. I just nod my head and agree every time someone else says it.
Speaking of nod. Have you ever seen/heard of Land of Nod? They have some super cute, unusual stuff for kiddos. I like cute and unusual stuff. Actually, it's the part of Christmas that plagues me the most. For my family I want to get them stuff they want, but what do you do for those people you buy gifts for but don't want to get normal stuff. I don't want to get my best friends t-shirts. Unless it's this one....
or this one.....
Those are funny. I would buy my friends those.
You see what I mean though, right? It's tricky to get the perfect "I know you enough to get you something cool, yet practical" gift....especially because there aren't many cool but practical gifts. How did I get here? Not quite sure..... I guess I should just say, good luck with the rest of your Christmas shopping. Don't let it get you down. It's not what Christmas is about anyway. It's about a little baby that came to save the world. For that I am grateful....eternally grateful. (you see what i did there? ha!)
If you're still with me here's the menu for the week:
Tuesday: Spiced chicken with plantains
Wednesday:Thai- style steak salad
- for soy sauce i'll use soy free tahini sauce- for sugar i'll use honey
- for vegetable oil i'll use coconut or olive
- for peanuts i'll use walnuts or almond slices

Thursday: Pizza
Friday: Steak and fall roasted veggies
Saturday: Not sure. Probably chili again....but I may do burgers instead.
Sunday: 1st birthday for my little one! Menu tbd.
