Weekly Menu Planning - June 2022

Actuals for the last week of June (and into July), cooking for 2 in MN. Busy around here, so it was a week of quicker meals. After dinner Wednesday we drove across town to view in-person their new fire station similar to the one being built on our corner. And realized that when the planning narrative we’d read last year mentioned a 45 ft. tall section of the building “positioned to have minimal sight-impact”, they actually meant “minimal impact when viewed from the street”. It’s going to be 12 feet from their property line closest to our neighbor’s house. Sigh. Hopefully it will at least serve as a bit of a wind-break for winter breezes out of the North.
