Doing well, trying lots of new things in my new slow cooker, and I'm starting to plan using it on busy days to ease stress. I'm completely converted 
Saturday - In-Laws, if we make it through the winds, and floods as they're surround by the themes
Sunday - HM Chicken Goujions, HM Chips, HM Tzaziki and Salsa with SC Rice Pudding for Dessert.
Monday - SC Red Thai Curry with Pork (New!)
Tuesday - Lasagne, Garlic Bread and Salad
Wednesday - LO Red Thai Curry
Thursday - LO Lasagne, Garlic Bread and Salad
Friday - SC Chicken Casserole and Dumplings (New)
Saturday - PC Pea and Ham Soup with HM Rolls
Sunday - Leftover Chicken Casserole and Dumplings
I'll be making 5 batches of meat sauce for the Lasagne (to go with the cheese sauce I made with milk which needed using!) lucky I need 3 batches for a meal we have planned for the godparents on the day of the Christening
DH is going away on Sunday morning for 4 weeks, so things are going to start getting more repetitive as meals last longer.
Hope everyone has a great week

My first time posting in this thread, too. It is a great idea and planning everything out like this will ensure I eat properly (sometimes I am lazy and don't do enough veg etc) and help when I go shopping. I might steal some ideas from everyone else, too!
I am counting on the fact that the quinoa pudding tastes OK, I wanted to make rice pudding, but my local Lidl doesn't have any pudding rice and I do have an unused pack of quinoa in my cupboard. Desperate times call for desperate measures!
I do a lot of sprouted seeds, so they get added to almost everything (sometimes even my porridge). Oh yes, the porridge, I am slightly embarrassed at having it every morning, but it is my favourite breakfast and look forward to it when I wake up! If I need anything snacky, I have some fruit bread and chopped up pizza squares in the freezer.
