Week in Review 6/23/12

Yesterday was one of the longest days ever.  My husband asked that I take his car to get the oil changed.  I had to go to a store to return some stuff anyway, it was convenient, of course I will take it.  Well, I get there and it will be a 30 minute wait for them to get to my car, plus then the 30 minutes for my car.  Not a big deal, I had my return, plus it is attached to the mall.  He was supposed to call when it was done.  My son and I get back there 90 minutes later (he never called), and they aren’t done!  They had found some other minor problems, and they didn’t know what to do.  H-E-L-L-O, I gave you me cell number for a reason!  At that point I wasn’t going to wait any longer, so I said I would deal with it later.  Still it took 2 hours and 45 minutes for me to get out of there!! INSANE, especially with a kid!

Sorry for the rambling…

Here is what I was up to this week:
Nutella Magicshell – A favorite ice cream topping made with Nutella – only 2 ingredients.
Homemade Peanut Butter – Only 4 ingredients and less than 10 minutes to homemade peanut butter.
Chocolate Cookies n’ Cream Chunk Cookies – Chocolate cookies with Oreo’s, Chocolate Chips, and Hershey’s Cookies n’ Cream Candy!
Curried Potatoes with Chickpeas – Potatoes and chickpeas spiced with curry powder, and topped with a spicy yogurt sauce.
Pork Carnitas – Made in the slow cooker, so perfect for summer and super easy.

Here are a few things I have bookmarked of yours this week:
Asian Barbeque Beef Short Ribs by Just One Cookbook – These looks super flavorful, and easy for a summer dinner on the grill.
Strawberry Lemonade by Laylita’s Recipe – Incredible refreshing and such a great color!
Loaded Cookie Bars by Pip & Ebby – Oh my!  All kids of deliciousness in these bars!  I can’t wait to try these!
The Texican Burger by Confections of a Foodie Bride – Holy spicy and delicious!
Peanut Butter Ice Cream “Cake” Pie by Kitchen Confidante – This just makes my mouth water looking at it.  I can not imagine how good it is!

Thanks for stopping by, have a great weekend!
