Corn Chowder

July 18, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 14 Comments

Hi Everyone,

It is so nice to get back to my normal routine!  However around 9am this morning the Jet lag started to kick in and I was exhausted. So what it is one to do when there tired?  Well go to Starbucks of course.  That was just what I needed to give me some energy to get me through the rest of the day.  When I got home from work, I did the beginning workout for the Bosu ball.  It was the first time I ever used one.  It was fun and I originally thought this isn’t going to do much, I was wrong!  I was sweating and my legs are sore and I only worked out for about 30 minutes.  Have you ever used a Bosu ball?  Can you recommend any videos I could use to workout to it?

After my workout, I rummaged through my empty refrigerator and found 6 ears of corn that needed to be used up, so I decided to make corn chowder.  I figured with the cold weather and rain that we had today, it would be a great night for soup!  I have to say I am pretty pleased with the results.

The soup was thick and creamy and I didn’t use milk in it.  My Husband said it tasted like cream of corn, which it kind of did.  I debated about using more spices, but I really liked the flavor that it was, which was sweet with a hint of spice!


I decided to go light with toppings, and I just used some chopped tomatoes and crushed tortilla chips.  This would also be good topped with hot sauce and avocados but I didn’t have either in the house.  I really need to do some grocery shopping!!

I was going to serve the soup with some crusty garlic bread, but decided to stay away from bread for a little while, since I consumed my weight in bread while in Europe.  I decided to make a chicken and cheese quesadilla using a Flat Out bread.  I split it with my Hubby.  For a man who doesn’t like healthy type foods he loves the Flat Out Bread.

Well my Peeps, time for me to go!  I have dishes to do and then I want to rest up for the rest of the evening.  I’m starting to get tired. I really don’t know how people can travel so much?  I give them a lot of credit!!

    That soup sounds good–however, soup also makes me think of fall!! I loved how you made that quasadilla out of that flat out bread–could you possibly post that recipe soon? It looks delicious!

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep clea Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep cleaning in my kitchen on Monday. I washed the floors, cabinets, counters and decluttered the countertops. It feels so good and everything is so bright and clean. Well….
💖
My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.

What do you do to get inspiration?

I’m sharing heart shaped cinnamon rolls that I made this weekend. I got the idea to make them from my friend Heidi @eleanorrosehome. She made the most delicious looking cinnamon rolls, that I couldn’t resist to make. So perfect for Valentines Day and sooooo easy! 
❤️
I took a can of Trader Joe’s cinnamon rolls and unraveled them, if that makes sense, and rolled them up like a palmier cookie. So fun! You could add food coloring to the frosting to make it pink and add sprinkles. Super cute! You can follow step by step recipe on Heidi’s Instagram page! 
❤️
Thank you Heidi for sharing the recipe. This was so fun!
❤️
Would you rather get chocolate or flowers for Valentines Day?

I’m sharing with you my corner of my living room. I love how open this space looks. I added greenery to give it a fresh look. I also stuck with mostly natural colors with an exception of some blues to bring my whole living room together.
