July '10 Menu
Okay, so if you're anything like me, skipping June was ROUGH on your family dinner time. I'm looking in my empty freezer counting down the days until the July meals are ready. Well, it's time to send out the menu and ask for RSVPs. As always, the RSVP deadline is the FIRST Friday of the month (July 2nd) and the party will be held the THIRD Friday of the month (July 16th).
***Please remember that if you RSVP to order meals, you are responsible for payment. We can always try our best to sell your meals, but ultimately you are responsible. All of the items are purchased with my personal money and I don't get paid back until everyone has paid. (It has nothing to do with me being a pain!)***
Anyways. As I mentioned, the party will be held on Friday, July 16th at 7:00 pm. Please note that I have a new home, so the party will be held at my new home. (Email if you need the address.) My home number has also changed. If you need to reach me for any reason, my home number is (281) 758-0838. We will be providing the meat for all ten meals this month, so the cost for July is $145 (before any "special" orders). The menu is listed below, with a new addition. We have received feedback that it would be nice to know in advance the amount of cooking time (along with the cooking method). By including this, hopefully you will be able to plan your weekly meals a little better (i.e. you don't set out a meal with a 2 hour cook time if you don't get home from work until 7 pm). Read below and please let us know NO LATER than next Friday if you will be ordering or not.

Payment is due by the Sunday following the party. If you are unable to pick up your meals the weekend that the party is held, please mail payment to the above address.
I've been out of commission on the meal-making for a month, so I'm trying to make sure I've included everything that you might need to know. If I've forgotten anything or you have any questions, don't hesitate to call or email. Thanks and have a blessed afternoon!

We have the menu set for March! We WILL be having a party this month. It will be held at Dana's house on Friday, March 19th at 7:00 pm. RSVPs are due NO LATER than Friday, March 5th at 5:00 pm. (Remember, RSVPs are always due the first Friday of the month, and the parties are held on the third Friday of the month!) The cost for this month is $140. This price includes ten meals that serve four (or more) adults. That comes out to $14 per meal. I don't know of ANYWHERE you can feed 4 adults for that price! (Additional costs are listed below.) You will need to provide cooked meat for one of the meals this month (Classic Lasagna). If you would like us to provide the meat for you, please let us know and add $5 to your total. When you RSVP, please let us know of any "special requests" you may have (any substitutions, food allergies, servings of two, etc.). We also need to know if you'll be attending the party, or just ordering the meals. Okay, now for the good stuff...the menu.
Berry Roasted Chicken - a whole chicken roasted in a mixed-berry marinade
Cheesy Crock Chicken - a cheesy version of chicken spaghetti
Chicken Supreme - lightly floured chicken breasts cooked in a lemon-butter sauce
Classic Lasagna (requires 1 pound of browned ground beef) - pretty self-explanatory
Honey Lime Tilapia - fillets of tilapia in a honey-lime sauce
Molasses Grilled Tenderloin - a grilled pork tenderloin with a molasses-caramalized outside (this one could feed an army)
Pepper Jelly Pork Chops - these are sweet, with just a little kick
Roast Beef Au Jus (*) - au jus sandwiches cooked "crock-style"
Sloppy Joes - if you like our Mini Meatloaves, you'll love this..."Manwich" has nothing on us!
Sweet Asian Chicken - chicken breasts cooked in an Asian-style sauce
Each person's menu includes one order of any meals marked with (*). Additional orders of these meals will be an additional $2 each.
If you are unable (or unwilling...hee hee, you don't know what you're missing) to attend the party, you can order the meals for an additional $10. (They will all be prepared for you, all you have to do is pick them up!)
All of our meals are made to serve 4 adults (although some serve significantly more than that). If you would like to order your meals in servings of 2, just add $10 to your total. (You pick your ten meals and you'll get 2 orders of each. This works well if you have a small family, or a friend that you'd like to split the meals with. Then each of you can have smaller servings of the entire menu!)
If you would like to order more than the ten meals included in the price, each additional meal is $12.
Parties are planned based on the number of RSVPs given. If you are, for any reason, unable to attend the party (after RSVPing that you WILL be there), there will be a fee of $25.
All meals need to be paid for by the date of the party. If you will not be attending, and cannot pick up the weekend of the party, please mail your payment to me (Dana Nordlander, 18019 Willow Cliff Lane, Cypress TX 77433). Any meals not paid for by this date will have a late fee of $10 added to the total. (I am unable to pay off my credit card by the due date if payment is not received in a timely manner...and incur finance charges.)
Once the RSVP deadline passes, you are responsible for payment of your meals because we begin shopping as soon as RSVPs are due! If something comes up and you are unable to purchase your meals (for any reason), we will do our best to sell your meals to individuals. You will be responsible for payment for any meals we are unable to sell!
Thanks...and we look forward to cooking with you this month!!!
