Week in Review 8/13/11

This was officially the last week of summer here.  Wednesday marks the first day of school.  It went by way too fast, and didn't get nearly as much accomplished as I would have hoped.  We did make it to the pool a few times, went on a couple great trips, and had fun with friends.  But I am not quite read for it to be over.  Although it will be nice to have my days back to myself, so I can actually get work done! 


Here is what I was up to this week:
Grilled Margherita Pizza - Tortillas for the crust, means you can make pizza any time!
Vanilla Bean Shortbread - Buttery, flaky shortbread.  Guest post over at Caleigh's Kitchen
Key Lime Pie - Tangy and Delicious summer pie
Italian Turkey Cutlets - Turkey topped with pesto, tomatoes, and cheese.  Ready in less than 15 minutes!
Seven Links - Fun game using your blog for the answers
Peanut Butter Magic Shell - A Pie for Mikey

Here are a few things I bookmarked this week:
Snickerdoodle Steusel Blondies by Flour Dusted - Combining 2 desserts into one, sounds amazing!
Nutella and Peanut Butter Stripe Bread by Foodiva's Kitchen - Peanut Butter and Nutella?  Has to be good!
Penna Pasta with Short Rib Ragu by Fifteen Spatulas - This just looks like pure comfort and deliciousness in a bowl!
Ice Cream Bread by Cooking with Libby - Can't wait to try this and see what it is like!
Bacon Burgers with Bacon Onion Balsamic Jam by Tracey's Culinary Adventures - Balsamic, onion, and bacon - yum!

Have a great weekend.  Don't forget to tell people you love them!

  8. I vote for your vanilla shortbread. I also need to go check out those bacon burgers. They're in Fine Cooking this month and I'm looking forward to making them. It'll be fun to see how someone else did them.
