Weekend Chores and What's for Dinner This Week?

Happy Monday! Hope you had a wonderful weekend.  Mine was FULL of house work and chores - not a fun way to spend a weekend.  The most exciting thing I did this weekend was plant a garden (kind of...).

Let me tell you the story of my adorable little garden. When Cody (aka the hubby) and I get bored, we go to Home Goods to wander.  This can sometimes be a rather dangerous excursion as Home Goods has ridiculously cute household items.  For instance, this little herb home ($19.99):

We have been wanting to plant a garden; however, we have mischievous dogs that will somehow make their way into any place they are not supposed to be. When we stumbled upon this little wooden decoration, we knew we had to give it a try!  We stopped by our local nursery and picked out a few herbs to test out: cilantro, basil, rosemary, parsley, and thyme.  I cannot wait to test these babies out this week! 

That being said, here is this week's dinner menu: 

Cobb Style Burgers for two w/Rosemary Roasted Red Potatoes
Spicy Pasta w/a side salad tossed with homemade Garlic-Parmesan & Peppercorn dressing
Goat Cheese, Pancetta, Caramelized Onion Pizza
Taco Salad with Southwest Chicken Chili

Only 4 recipes for this week because the hubby is leaving town on Friday for a bachelor party so my night will probably consist of leftovers and meeting with my girlfriends for a couple drinks. Geez.... is it Friday yet??
