Menu Monday and Weekend Scenes

It's Monday again!  Not sure where the weeks go, but they sure go fast around here!  Hope you had a nice weekend.

I'll start our recap with Friday...we finally had our kitchen backsplash tiled although I'm still waiting for them to return to grout it.  We really like it, but now I'm wondering if we should have tiled higher.

Friday was National Chocolate Cake Day and since I love a good "food holiday", Betty Crocker, the girls and I made a s'mores cake for dessert.

Saturday morning I was off to spin class and then enjoyed a mango, orange, banana smoothie for breakfast. It was begging for some rum and a poolside chaise lounge in the Caribbean!

Saturday afternoon we took a walk around the neighborhood to check on all the building projects.  This is the house next door to us, it's sold and should be occupied by late spring.

This one is at the end of our street in the cul-de-sac.  It sits on two acres and is currently on the market. There's one more lot available on the street in between these two houses, also two acres.

Saturday evening, Mr. PS stopped at P.F. Chang's for a drink and appetizer before heading to a Chinese New Year Party.

 Their Chicken Lettuce Wraps are so good!

 I opted for a traditional red dress and accessorized with gold jewelry, shoes and purse.

 Mr. PS was wearing his Chinoisierie too!  How cute were these year of the Rooster cookies?

We laid low on Sunday.  Rowan wasn't feeling great so we ended up having a cuddly day on the sofa!

Lot's of Super Bowl prep around here this week.  I'm anxiously awaiting my Bronwyn Hahahan Football Door Hanger to arrive...customized for the Patriots of course!  Here's what's cooking...

Tuesday- Applegate Turkey Dogs, Vegetarian Baked Beans & Coleslaw
Wednesday- Shrimp & Asparagus Risotto
Thursday- Chicken & Waffles (Riley's request)
Friday- Cheeseburger Pie, Alexia Fries & Salad
