Mealplan Monday #109 and Spring Cleaning outside

I'm doing a bit of Spring cleaning outside of the house.  
My plants have been living outside of the garage for about a month, waiting for me to move them to shadier places when I get the back patio cleaned up.  

Monday - (freezer) Mediterranean Pork Chops, green beans, garlic toast
Tuesday - (freezer) Indian Meatballs, rice, carrots
Wednesday - Turkey and Spinach Bake, corn*
Thursday - L.O.Easter, rolls
Friday - Chicken Lazone, masheds, zucchini
Saturday - Dad grills
Sunday - Lasagna, peas (we never ate this week before last)
Dessert this week is Chocolate Chip Brownies
*I'm subbing turkey breast that I will cook in my mini crock pot


Last week I troweled the Lantana beds to remove leaves and aerate the soil, removed excess old mulch, pulled weeds, then re-mulched lightly and watered.  They are going gangbusters and this week they are in bloom! 
I'm so glad we replaced the grass here with Lantana.  It's drought-resistant and is beautiful for most of the year.  Every time I admire it, I think of The Girl helping me with this big project - wonder if she remembers, too?
