What's for dinner?

I've tried planning out meals, flying by the seat of my pants, and everything inbetween when it comes to dinner time in my home. But when there are only two people to cook for, a feat in and of itself, there tends to be a lot of "How about we grab a pizza?" or "Let's have something with rice and beans!" (I hate beans! And rice is ok, but I prefer pasta so we end up making two separate meals...) or there are wasted leftovers because I apparently only know how to cook for a small army. So I have decided that I am going share my experiences and see if I can't learn from past mistakes.
