| Blue on blue - Island View beach |
Yesterday's meeting with the playboy bunny went well and as per usual, I was out of there practically before I arrived. Side effects continue to be minimal and mitigated by copious amounts of Glaxol cream - kind of like a kinky spa treatment - only unilateral. Gives a whole new meaning to the expression "slipping on your bra."
Bee managed to escape from her robbers and crooks a couple of hours early so we hit the beach for a peaceful stroll before making dinner. I have been trying to decide whether I should tell you what I made, because it really was straight out of the 50s and showed zero creativity and even less nutrient value. It was saved by melting copious amounts of cheese over top, and that's all I have to say about it. Oh yeah, and it involved the name "Campbell's." The worst part is that we have the second half to plough through tonight.
To atone, I've got a fabulous quinoa salad under construction. Ancient grains, sunflower seeds and roasted walnuts will be added, along with pomegranate arils (how many of you knew that's what you call a pomegranate seed? Now you have a dandy conversation starter. You're welcome!). Of course there will be feta, red peppers, chunks of apple, fresh garden carrots and white mulberries, spring onions and fresh basil, lots of it. Just the antidote we need, especially when followed by a couple of chocolate Skinny Cows for dessert - right, Bee? Hurry home - Grey's season finale is on tonight!

HAHAHAHAHA! Oh Mama! You are so funny! I just love the quote of the gift of the day :) Brilliant I say!
ReplyDeleteAnd I have to disclose to your readers, that last nights supper was DELICIOUS! In addition to the few ingrediants already shared, it had chicken, asparagus, a beautiful brown rice AND came from a 'clean eating' cook book! Not too shabby eh?
Can't wait for tonight for round 2! Just itching to get outta here......and Grey's tonight! YEEHAA!
Come on clock....GO GO GO!!!!!!!!!!
Your 'Campbell's' dinner sounds great to me - perfect comfort food. Congrats on your halfway milestone!! (couple days late, sorry) Seems like time is flying by, at least from my distant viewpoint. Hope it's going as quickly for you. But, hold on a minute, you're on an extended vacation, hanging with your favourite girl and the boys, enjoying what appears to be astonishingly lovely west coast weather, exploring the southern Island at will, brazenly flaunting parking laws and stealing lilacs - maybe I shouldn't be wishing it away quite so quickly! Other than the daily visits to BCCA, that is.
ReplyDeleteLoving you Butt Chart photos and the Natitty Calendar just cracks me up. Bee, you've found some amazing stuff! Hugs.
Hey! Your "Campbell's Creation" beats my hot dogs by a friggin' mile!!! But then I AM GUTLESS when it comes to shit done in the kitchen! Thankfully my wiles and artfull skills fall into ANOTHER room of the house so he is happy with beans and franks! BWA HAHAHAHA!!
