Cooking! Sam! Cleaning!
Things I cooked this weekend (and a few from the week)
(1) Chocolate Cupcakes with Peanut Butter Frosting
(2) Chicken and Roasted Garlic Pizza with Whole Wheat Crust
(3) Potato Skins
(4) Crispy Panko Chicken
(5) Spaghetti and Meatballs
(6) there would have been other cupcakes here, but they were dry and I didn't feel like doing another batch.
(7) There was also the failed attempt at kitchen stock (too much water, not enough good stuff)
Things I did:
(1) Watched a few episodes of NCIS
(2) Cleaned out my pantry and fridge! It was awesome
(3) cooked a bunch
(4) Watched the first episode of Mistresses (liked it!)
(5) Am watching the Oscars
(6) Watched BSG, Leverage, Burn Notice, and Psych.

Chicken and Roasted Garlic Pizza on Whole Wheat Crust
Step 1 - The basic cupcake!
Step 2 - cut a little hole and put in the peanut butter cup
Frost and Top! :-)
All lined up!
The totally empty, totally scrubbed fridge!
The pantry before
Sam, not in the way AT ALL. (she would not move - it was hilarious. I had everything on the counters and she just laid in the middle)
Organized!
I let her eat all of the boxes, and she kept eating them on my shoes.
Spaghetti and Meatballs! The meatballs were fantastic - the sauce was a little acidic, but I'm thinking that was me, and not the recipe
Crispy panko chicken (these were good - I had the oil a little hot so they got a little black, but the topping, which was parm, panko, paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper, was fantastic).
Dinner.
