Food, Family, and Lifestyle
My third week of work is complete, we have all adjusted well and I even received a paycheck – whoopee! As I sit here, today, Sunday, June 1st, I am thinking about the past week and smiling. Last weekend, the family went to Mount Monadnock, visited cousins in N.H., the boys took part in a…
My husband has always been able to whip together a quick, easy, and fabulous meal with very little forethought. This recipe came about by him boiling some pasta, and sauteing some shrimp with olive oil and a fabulous Italian salad dressing. Throw some fresh herbs on top and you are done.
