Hello and happy Saturday to you!

I hope that you had a great week and were able to stay cool amidst the heat wave that washed over many of us. Weโ€™re celebrating a family birthday today, and tomorrow Iโ€™m cooking up fettuccine Alfredo; what are you cooking or baking?

1.ย Copycat Chipotle Chicken Recipe

2.ย Traditional Key Lime Pie

3.ย Classic Burger Sauce

4.ย Grandmaโ€™s Banana Nut Bread

5.ย My Favorite White Bread Recipe

1.ย GoMacro Bars โ€“ Iโ€™ve been loving these over the last couple of months, mostly to keep in my purse in case I need a quick breakfast or afternoon snack while Iโ€™m on the go. They are filling and the ingredients are pretty clean; my favorite flavor is the oatmeal chocolate chip.

2.ย Key Lime Juiceย - This bottled key lime juice is perfect for homemadeย key lime pieย when you can't get your hands on fresh key limes.

3.ย Large Square Glass Jarย - This is the jar I love using for batches ofย refrigerator bread and butter pickles. Perfect for stashing them in the fridge!

4.ย Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauceย - An ingredient that packs tons of flavor into the reader-favoriteย copycat Chipotle chicken recipe.

5.ย The Wedding People โ€“ I finished this book this past week; I really liked the over-arching message of the book, but it didnโ€™t totally suck me in; Iโ€™d give it four stars.

6. Ancho Chile Powderย - Another ingredient that packs tons of flavor into the reader-favoriteย copycat Chipotle chicken recipe.

7. Angel Food Cake Panย - I have had this pan for nearly 10 years and love it; a must-have for makingย homemade angel food cake!

What I Bookmarked This Week

I made the street-cart chicken and rice from Smitten Kitchen Every Day earlier this week, and all of us loved it. The kids even ate the salad!

I usually make sweet scones, but how good do these cheese scones look?! (They remind me a bit of my breakfast scones from 18 years ago!)

Putting this shrimp scampi on the menu soon!

Love how easy this coffee mousse is to make; I need to keep a batch in the fridge for when I want something sweet at night.

Itโ€™s been at least a couple of years since Iโ€™ve bought Biscoff, but gosh, I need to make these Biscoff-stuffed cookies!

Have a delicious weekend!
