What do you want to eat tonight? Part 2

Meal planning isn't easy and every day we have to find answers to the questions, "What do you want to eat tonight?" & "What haven't we had for a while?" I thought it might help if I kept a log of what we have been eating.

The original list was getting so long I decided to break it into six-month segments. You can always find both lists by clicking "Categories" on the sidebar to the right and then clicking "Menus".

To see what we ate during the previous six months, January through June, 2007, click here. For the menus since January, 2008 click here.

The image at the top is from the menu at the Whistle Post Tavern in Conyers, Georgia. Good eats. Always worth a stop.
