Sweet and Spicy Chicken Hot Dog / Weekly Recap

August 26, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 4 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Happy Sunday!  Wow this weekend flew!!!  Jenny and I never made our hike, but we did have a nice breakfast, which I’ll be sharing with you this week.  We did go to the Farmers Market and to Trader Joe’s.  I”m pretty sad that the Farmers Market will be ending soon.  It seems there produce is getting smaller.  🙁  They didn’t have butternut squash yet, but I’ll be patiently waiting.

Today I am sharing with you my weekly round ups from this weeks posts.  What a difference in comparison to last weeks round up.  Last week it was all vegetables and this week it’s all fruit!  I guess my taste buds changed this week.  It seems with the chiller nights and mornings I have been more on a fall kick!!   I am just loving pumpkins, right now!!

Here is this weeks weekly recap!

Monday – Blueberry Banana Zucchini Avocado Bread – I was really impressed with this recipe!  I can not get over how moist it is!  Matter in fact I am making it again today!  I loved the colors and the juicy blueberries and slight hint of banana.  My Husbands co-worker loved this bread, she asked for the recipe.  I bet she was a little shocked when she saw what was in it!!  😉


Tuesday – Skinny Bitch Tuesday / Crepes with Strawberries – I loved this recipe!  The crepes were sweet and the strawberries were a perfect complement to this dish.  This was the first time I made crepes and I can’t wait to make them again!  That’s one-off my food bucket list!

Wednesday – Chocolate Raspberry Frappe – This is a fantastic drink, especially when your craving chocolate!!  I loved this drink and made it a few times this week.  Simply delicious!

Thursday – Cheesy Pesto Chicken – I have to tell you this is probably one of my all time favorite chicken recipes.  The combination of pesto, ohhhy gooey cheese and tomatoes makes a fantastic combination.  Marinating the chicken in yogurt made this chicken so tender that you didn’t need a knife to cut it!!  My Husband who doesn’t like pesto, loved it!! Woohoo!!  Thats a star for me!

Friday – Pumpkin Spice Frappe and Pumpkin and Cream Frappe – I know I hit you with two coffee drinks this week, but honestly I couldn’t wait to share it with you!  This truly tastes like your drinking pumpkin pie!  I love both versions of the drink!!  I have left over pumpkin so you know I’ll be drinking this a few more hundred times!!  If you make it use coconut milk, it makes it so creamy.  I tried with non-fat milk and it was good but not as good as with coconut milk!!

Pumpkin and Cream Frappe (Non-coffee version)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Saturday – Blueberry and Cream Shooters – This is a simple smoothie, turned into a dessert!  It’s creamy, healthy and just plain yummy!  A perfect way to get my family to eat their fruit!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I thought I would share with you my newest craving this week!  I haven’t posted this recipe,  but I thought I would share it with you!  This is my done up version of a healthy hot dog!

I purchased Trader Joe’s Chicken Hot Dogs and to be honest I was kind of afraid to try them, but I am glad I did.  There super duper good and get this, only 60 calories a hot dog!  There a normal size hot dog too!!!  I topped the dogs with Trader Joe’s Queso Cheese, located in the chip isle (15 calories for 2 tbsp) pickled jalapenos and my homemade mango salsa.  Oh my gosh, I loved it!  I loved it so much I ate it twice for dinner this week!!!  This may sound odd for a hot dog, but it is crazy good!!  You must try it!!!

I had one dog with a hot dog bun and I ate the other one on a romaine lettuce leaf.  I love both versions.  I went back to TJ’s to get more of these delicious dogs and they were out of stock.  They better get more in!  At 60 calories I can eat two completely guilt-free!!  Speaking of guilt-free the calories for this hot dog including a 120 calorie hot dog bun is 215 calories!  Not bad for a hot dog!!!  You must get the chicken dogs!!!

Here’s the recipe in case your interested!

My patio area is kind  of an awkward space because we used to have a large pool that we took out a few years ago. We built our space around the pool. So we have lots of odd corners, but it works for us. I really like my backyard.

I went with light cool colors for my backyard space because of the heat and sun. I have always loved the coastal look. I do love to add a pop of color with flowers. Give me all the flowers! 

I hope you check out everyone’s outdoor space. I love this time of year and I can always use more outdoor inspiration.

Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreat Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreations made a gorgeous DIY Tabletop Firepit and I had to run out and got all the pieces to make one of my own. Kelly’s is so gorgeous and fun. Perfect for evenings outside.
🩵
However, when I started to make mine I realized that my dogs are to interested in it, as you can see from the video. I was afraid they would try to get close to the fire and burn themselves. So I came up with another idea, where I could get the same effect without the fire.
🩵
A couple weeks ago my friend Claire @huntersridge_designs shared some solar candles that I thought were pretty, and would be great to use on my table. I’m a sucker for anything solar. 😂 So of course I ordered some. I decided to use the solar candles in my pot in place of the tiki fire. I think it turned out great. I just need to add a few more rocks to it, which I’ll get this weekend.
🩵
Be sure to check out Kelly @farmtotablecreations to see her firepit and also check out how Claire @huntersridge_designs styled her solar candles. Both of there accounts are inspiring.
🩵
Have a wonderful day!!

Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working outside that I have not worked on decorating my dining room for Mother’s Day or Spring. It’s a bare slate as of right now. So I thought I would share with you last years tablescape that I did for Mother’s Day.
💗
This Mother’s Day,(Saturday) little Jenny is taking me to the @gratoncasino to get a pedicure and possibly lounge at the pool, if it is warm enough outside. Then we will go for a nice lunch. I can’t wait. Sunday, I’ll spend Mother’s Day with the boys. 🐶🐶
💗
Hope you have a fabulous day!!

Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend in between the rain and cold. It was pretty chilly to me. I did get some plants planted and my husband added a new drip line in my big garden. Hopefully my flowers will thrive better this year. 
🌷
On Friday, I watched 3 episodes of Firefly Lane on Netflix. If you like girl type series, I highly recommend. It’s so well written. It’s about best friends growing older together. Unfortunately this is the last of the series. I’ll miss it. I also read that Yellowstone will come back in November and that will be the end of the series. I’ll miss that show. At least I have Virgin River to look forward too. My husband likes Virgin River too.
🌷
Anyway, here is a view of my clean kitchen. I put together this little vignette for Mother’s Day inspiration. I love the Italian Soda from Trader Joe’s, but boy does it give me bad heartburn. I always just drink a little. Actually, anything sparkling, except regular soda, gives me heartburn. So strange. 
🌷
Have a great week!

Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturd Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturday in forever. Today we are getting rain again. Last week it was 90 and sunny and now back to the 60’s, but we are going to hit 90 by next weekend. I can’t wait. I’m over this wacky weather we are having. 
💙
I took down my Easter decor a few weeks ago and went back to using blues and greens in the living room. I think the colors look fresh and clean. Once the weather gets nicer, I’ll start to add in some yellows. I love yellow for the summer.
💙
Next weekend is Mother’s Day. Do you have any plans for the holiday?
💙
Have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you how I styled @myclaireburke pieces that I received. Let me tell you I love Claire Burke. I have been using there products for more than 25 years.
💗
In my 20’s, I used to go to Macy’s with my mom and in the bedding department they had a section of Claire Burke. I always bought there Original Scent potpourri. It smells like spring flowers with roses and lavender and it’s also beautiful to look at.
💗
If you are looking for a Mother’s Day gift, I highly recommend. I love the Original scent, if you like a floral scent. If you are more for fresh clean scent, the Sea Salt and Grapefruit is amazing. If you like fresh linen I recommend Wild Cotton. I promise they won’t disappoint. Oh and the Electric Fragrance Warmer is also Claire Burke. Works fabulous! 
💗
My Claire Burke ships fast too! They were kind enough to give my followers a 20% discount code: PBANDP.
💗
Have a beautiful day!!

Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to g Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to get outside and work on my patio space, but unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be able to enjoy it this week. We are back to winter temps, high winds and rain. They are calling it “May Gray”. Such weird weather this year. 
🌼
I was able to put out my new rug that you all helped me to pick out. I just love the blue. I decided to go with blues and yellows for my outdoor space. I think the yellow brightens up the space. I just need to get more flowers because after all you can never have too many flowers. 
🌼
I wanted to also share with you my new side table from @vicllax_outdoor. I love the white color. It really helps to brighten this space. The table is made of metal, comes in 4 colors and is easy to put together. This table is perfect for a small space too. I couldn’t be happier. 
🌼
Have you setup your patio space yet?

Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather. Sunny, light breeze and in the 70’s. I did a lot of yard clean-up. I just need some dirt and my raised beds will be ready for planting.
🌼
I planned on working on the patio area, but time just went to fast. My husband repaired the trellis that fell over from the wind. We had the Morning Glory on it, but we got rid of it because it is highly toxic to dogs. I ordered a climbing rose from Heirloom Roses that will be delivered next week. 
🌼
I’m sharing with you the Beverage Tub that I bought from Target that I am using as a planter. My husband drilled 1/4” holes 4” apart on the metal insert.  I added a pot to the tub to give the flowers a lift. The handles on the tub are not bendable and I didn’t want to break the flowers and I wanted it to be easier to lift the flowers out, if I decide to change the flowers.
🌼
I love the look! Once I work on the patio area, I’ll move the table and flowers to the patio area. So excited to be working outside. Have a beautiful day!

Happy Wednesday! I am sharing with you my garden f Happy Wednesday! I am sharing with you my garden from last year. I’m gearing myself up to start working in the garden this weekend. It’s supposed to be mid 70’s. So if all goes planned you will be seeing quite a few gardening posts. 
🌺
Last years extreme summer heat took a major toll on my garden. I lost quite a few plants. 😫 For some reason I lost my Butterfly Bush. I plan on adding another one in the same spot. A lot of my lower flowers like Hummingbird Mint and my Coneflowers didn’t survive. We will be looking at the sprinkler system to make sure the plants are getting enough water. 
🌺
At least this garden is mainly annuals, so it should fill up with some color soon. I’m unsure what to do with my other gardens as my dogs have destroyed them. They keep on digging in the dirt. Maybe I should get them a sandbox to play in?
🌺
Have you started to work in your garden?

Happy Monday! Is there anything better than loungi Happy Monday! Is there anything better than lounging in bed reading a book to your fur babies? The boys 🐶🐶 just loved it. 
🐾
The boys will do anything to get on the bed, especially when you put on the @downlitebedding. I know you have heard me say it before, but they love there Downlite Bedding comforters and pillows. I have never seen 2 dogs get so excited.
🐾
We are all cozied up with the new Renew Comforter. It’s so soft and fluffy and not super heavy which is great for Spring weather. The comforter is 100% organic, 300 thread count with Lockshift baffle box construction and is machine washable!!

Do you read in bed?
