Weekly Menu 6/6-6/12

I’m so sad the weekend is over. We finally had some really beautiful weather, it got into the 80’s this weekend, can you believe it? We got a lot of fun things done this weekend, so I’m a happy camper. I finally got my veggies planted in containers. They’ve been hanging out in my living room since April.  Josh dug up some of these huge grassy weeds that were once plants but died from neglect from the pervious renters I think. We did a lot of grilling…maybe you even caught Josh’s blog post he finally wrote last night about the amazing Burgers we had Saturday night? I know, it’s amazing right? I never thought this day would come when he would write again, lol! But he has promised to make it more of a habit.

Some other interesting things concerning this little blog has happened over the past few days as well. I’ve reached 50 followers ( if you missed that post/news) and we’ve re-registered our domain name.  First it was at blogspot, then it was dot biz ( which I never really liked…but Josh wanted to score movie tickets for a cheaper price so he registered a domain then) and now…we are finally a dot com!!!  We’ve had some issues with the dot biz since changing it. If you search catzinthekitchen.biz, it’s coming out that our page isn’t found instead of resending you to the dot com page. But don’t worry, we’ll get it fixed. We are in the process of trying to fix that now.

Another new thing…we have a twitter page now. I’ve always been kind of against Twitter. I never really understood the point of it. Why have another outlet to do status updates? But Josh, is trying to convince me that Twitter is the future and I need to hop on board. Well, he kind of pushed me on board because he went and made a twitter account for Catz in the Kitchen last night without telling me until it was already registered. Sneaky boy. But, I think having a Twitter account, could indeed have some positives. Like, he said, ” People Can just search genres and find you!” Well that seems cool. So please, bear with me while I get to know this new and cool thing called Twitter.

Okay…onto the Menu. Sheesh, I’m long winded today :)

Monday
The weather isn’t as fun and exciting as the past few days. The clouds are back, so I have a White Bean Chili in the crockpot…and I might fix rolls with it. 
Tuesday
The weather is supposed to be beautiful again…so I was thinking a nice light Pasta Primevera would be nice. Now I’ve never made Primevera before, and I’m trying to decide between two different recipes…I’m thinking I’m going to go with this pasta dish
Wednesday
The icky weather is supposed to return, so I was thinking Pasta Toss. Now I know I will of just made Pasta the night before…but I’ve got some Ricotta in my fridge that I need to use before it goes bad. So it’s now or never. 
Thursday
I’m going to make it easy on myself and we’re going to have leftovers. I’m sure I’ll have plenty in my fridge.
Friday
I’m trying to decide between BBQ Chicken Drumsticks or A Honey Mustard Chicken Drumsticks…leaning toward the BBQ though…and we’ll have it with potatoes and…hmmm…maybe leftover pasta…
Saturday
I’m craving Teryaki Pineapple Turkey Burgers with my homemade French Fries
Sunday
I never know what we’re making on Sunday’s. Maybe Fajitas.
Now onto the desserts. Every Father’s Day, the ladies of the church make Pies for the dads. This year, we’re bumping our Father’s Day Pie Tradition to this Sunday instead because Josh’s family ( Josh’s dad pastors our church) will be out of town the weekend of Father’s Day and they have never missed Pie Day. So…that being said, I need to come up with some pies to make for Sunday. 
I would also like to make some cookies this week. I’m thinking…peanut butter something. I have a lot of peanut butter in the house and it seems like a simple way to go. But…I’m not sure. I need to consult my cookbooks for a recipe I deem worthy.
