Weekly Menu - 10.28.12

Hello! Things have finally slowed down at work and, this might be blasphemous, I think I have Sandy to thank for that. I really need this downtime because I'm feeling uber pregnant. We've made such great progress on the house in the last few weeks. Amelia's room is done! At least with the painting. Now I have to find/make/but probably find curtains, and a few more decorating touches and we'll be done-done! Finally hung up some pictures downstairs, and I have some goodies coming from various online retailers to make the downstairs more cozy. Feels good to make progress.

On the cooking front, been doing tons of that. Including some Halloween Funfetti cake- Will and I bought dueling frostings and had a frost off. I won. By 'I', I mean that the way-too-sugary orange Halloween frosting won over 'his' fancy buttercream frosting. Boo-ya.

Here's what's on the menu starting with last night- Will cooked. What can't the man do? He paints rooms, adds decorative trim, changes light fixtures, makes and fixes holes in walls. And he cooks.

Sunday: Will made Chili - was really good! Tasted a lot like the Wendy's one, which is awesome.

Monday: Leftovers. Will's in class until late. Tons in the fridge and zero motivation.

Tuesday: Dijon Roasted White Fish. Saw this recipe on Barefoot Contessa the other day. Only perpetuates my love for cooking things with dijon mustard.

Wednesday: Halloween party! Going to a friend's block party for early trick or treating and pizza. Will's in NYC (provided Sandy doesn't interfere).

Thursday: Fish Tacos for Taco Thursdays. Combining a couple of recipes, but the cole slaw from here.

Friday: Beth's Pistachio Chicken! I can't wait to try this. Except that I accidentally bought pistachios with the shell. Whoops. Have to go back to the store.

Saturday: Moroccan Chicken. Made this a few week ago and it was so easy and delicious.

Louise, hope you're staying safe!! Can you do a post on all the different canned food recipes you're going to make??
