My house is dusted, the laundry pile is getting smaller, half my son's dresser is now filled with adorable newborn sleepers, and there are even a couple of dinners waiting in the freezer. Baby is welcome to come whenever he/she is ready. :)
Here's what I've been cooking up this week:
-----
- Southern Belle Chicken Salad: Scrumptious! I served it on leftover cinnamon raisin bagels topped with lettuce and sliced apples. Fruity, refreshing, and delicious: perfect for our picnic in the park.
- Better Homes & Garden Cookbook's Classic Potato Salad: Made this to serve with the Chicken Salad Sandwiches for our picnic in the park and my husband didn't stop ranting about it! SO easy.
- Cocoa White Chocolate Chip Cookies: Made these for my husband's office as per his request. Apparently they were gone by eleven in the morning & have now been named "the brownie cookies." Such an easy recipe to whip up that I really can't take much credit!
- Apple Cinnamon Breakfast Quinoa: Not a huge fan. A little too nutty for me as a breakfast food. I'll just continue to eat my oatmeal for breakfast and save my quinoa for dinner, though, I should add that my son said, "Mmmm!" after his first taste and then proceeded to scarf down his entire serving.
- Greena Colada: Saw this recipe on a blog that I recently found. It really did taste just like a pina colada! I substituted 6 oz. greek yogurt for the 1 c. of milk. Probably because I don't have a Vitamix, it didn't turn out as smooth as I would have liked so little chunks of coconut got stuck in my straw. Otherwise, great recipe.
- Cranberry & Dark Chocolate Chip Scones: Excited to wrap these up and give them out on Sunday. :)
- Creamy Polenta with Fried Eggs & Sauteed Vegetables: Delicious and easy dinner I came up with last night. Will post the full recipe soon.

Have a great weekend!
