Blood Orange Margaritas - Must Be Friday Night.

In celebration of Tim's first full week back at work, we are celebrating with...

Blood Orange Margaritas

Ingredients:
Tequila (I prefer Silver in margaritas)
Orange Liquor (I prefer Cointreau, but Patron Citronage makes a great substitute.)
2 Blood Oranges
2 Limes
3-4 ounces Margarita Mix

Juice the blood oranges and the limes into your shaker.  Add 3 oz tequila, 1.5 ox Citronage, margarita mix to taste (I like less. Tim likes more.), and a bunch of ice cubes.

Shake it like a Polaroid picture.

Rim your glass with salt, add a few more ice cubes and divide between 2 glasses.
Margaritas are better when shared with someone you love.

Happy first week Punk!  So very, very proud of you!

Womp - There it is!

I know, I know, you've seen this picture before.  Well, this picture was actually in this weeks meal plan, I just cheated and used it in last weeks post.  But it was really, really good, and I couldn't help myself!  

Thursday:
Southwestern Corn Chowder with Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
Recipe from this blog.
 Friday:  Dinner at my Sister's house.

Saturday:
Buffalo Chicken Paninis with Sweet Potato Fries
Recipe from Cooking Light.
This was super quick and easy, and the family LOVED it!
Sunday:
Barbecued Onion Quesadillas with Maple Glazed Spiced Wings.
Quesadillas from Epicurious, Wings from Tim!
 Monday:
Monday was the trifecta of awful, and so out of care and concern for my family, we decided that I shouldn't handle knives at dinner time.  We let Domino's do the cooking.

Have you ever had blue cheese on a pizza? I know, you don't need any more vices, but seriously...
try this!
So how are you doing with menu planning?  Are you working on figuring out dinner in advance?  Share your secrets, or your link to your pictures below!

Happy Tuesday!
