It's the second week of AP testing and I have three test days this week. One of the tests I'm proctoring is Music Theory, and one of the test elements of Music Theory is sight singing with a recorded response. The recording portion of the test takes about 10 minutes, and each student has to record separately, in a room by themselves. Y'all. There are over 24 students taking this test. And I'm the only proctor. I asked the coordinator if we were really going to be there an extra four hours plus to get the recording done. Fortunately, no we are not. We're calling in reinforcements and there will be three rooms recording at once. Even so, it'll take more than an hour to record all the responses.
Anyway, I've modified my meal plan once again this week* to account for possible low energy levels on testing days, making some things ahead of time, and planning others that are super easy and fast.
- Fend for yourself (both because of testing and because of a track meet)
- Easy beef stroganoff, green beans
- Tacos (from the freezer) with all the fixin's
- Chicken fried rice (doubling the chicken and reducing the amount of rice)
- Pizza, salad
- Marry me chicken (y'all, this is so good), noodles, broccoli
- Grilled top sirloin steak, mashed potatoes, grilled green veggie

*Thank goodness for that lasagna I made Monday for me to just pop in the oven on Tuesday last week. I hadn't read the recipe carefully, and the Bolognese sauce had to simmer for an hour. That definitely would not have happened if I hadn't made it ahead of time. I even had enough ingredients to add two (8x8") lasagnas to the freezer stash--it would have been three if I'd had more noodles.
