I started planning last night and realized I'm completely unmotivated. I left the list at home, so I can't play until tonight. Hopefully I'll become inspired between then and now.

I made the Southwestern Steak and Pinto Beans before and really liked it. Hope you do too

I want to play this week. Helps keep me on track. No August here yet, so I'm trying new things off the board. Only 2 of us, so we typically have 2 days of leftovers.
