In Our Kitchen

Last night we had a favorite of ours - Salmon baked in parchment with Potatoes & Spinach. We had a few blackberries in the fridge, so we also tried Blackberry-Thyme Margaritas. Pretty tasty.
Later this week, we will have Milk-Braised Pork. Maybe Saturday, so we can do whatever we want that day, & just leave the crock pot at work. I love this ugly meal. It is so yummy, a real comfort food. But, the color & texture of the milk, after cooking for hours, isn't a very pretty sight.

So I have a question for you and/or other young homemakers:
do you plan your week's (or month's) menu ahead of time so you know what special ingredients to keep on hand?
or do you simply decide menus day by day, depending on what you find already on hand?
or do you end up running to the store for a handful of things on a frequent basis when you find recipes with cool ingredients?
