This comes together so quickly, with just a few ingredients, and it couldn’t be better (or more refreshing)!

This recipe is healthy, came together quickly and I made a nice side to go with it. We ate it for two nights. (#winwin)

I have seen Jeni’s Ice Cream at grocery stores, and remember driving by a Jeni’s in Charleston, SC (always with a long line of customers), but I never tried it.

I have an Eggplant Parmesan recipe that my mom made (recipe from a Detroit cookbook) – a winner, but I wanted to try a version without frying the eggplant.

Well, hello! Happy Saturday – hope you have wonderful plans (which can mean no plans, hehe) for the weekend. I love these colorful frogs – they always seem so happy jumping around. It seems like Fred is always saving frogs from the pool. Scoop them out and they jump right back in 🙄.

Back when the weather was cold, we thought a pot roast, baked low and slow and filled with veggies – sounded divine. All the pot roasts were large (for 2 people). We don’t eat red meat often, so I devised a well thought out plan – this was an overwhelming success! Here’s my plan of action…
