What do I need to buy to fix everything on this menu?  Mushrooms.  As for most of the meals I have no clue.

What is getting fixed and served at your house this week?

Was last week's plan successful, did you go off plan or did you not even plan what was going to be eaten last week?

Any great deals on food at your stores this week?
