Welcome to the weekend, my mates! We spent most of final week driving to Arizona and again for our annual household tenting journey within the White Mountains. It’s a heck of a drive now that we stay in Ohio, however we love the household time. After 56+ hours sitting within the automobile for the drive, I’ve been on my toes and transferring as a lot as I can this week.
And talking of being on my toes, there are some nice new recipes on the best way to all of the websites. (Have I discussed recently how a lot I really like this job?!)
ON THE BLOGS THIS WEEK: Juicy recent peaches are matched up with spicy jalapenos, aromatic pink onions, recent cilantro, and zesty lime on this totally irresistible peach salsa. I assure you’ll be able to’t cease at one chunk of this stunning dip!
California spaghetti salad is a assured hit for the summer season vegetable lover in your life! This amped up pasta salad is exploding with peak-freshness produce and an irresistible Parmesan dressing.
Coleslaw will get an thrilling improve on this pineapple coleslaw. Crunchy cabbage and sliced almonds are paired with candy and aromatic pineapple tidbits, tremendous recent inexperienced onions and cilantro in a tangy however mild and creamy dressing.
This peach cobbler is made as easy as can be with canned peaches and it’s precisely what I keep in mind my grandmother making once I was little. The topping is a little bit bit cakey, and buttery candy, and the peaches fall via because it bakes and create juicy pockets of fruit in every chunk.
Almond glazed, buttery, melt-in-your-mouth cookies are the right afternoon deal with with a sizzling cup of espresso or tea. Preserve a stash of those available for a candy accompaniment to a cuppa no matter you’re keen on finest.
Filled with tender apples, superbly citrusy rhubarb, and topped with a basic brown sugar oat crisp topping, this apple rhubarb crisp blends seasons collectively in candy tart concord. It’s totally different and it’s pleasant.
Deep, darkish, and indulgent, chocolate chocolate chip ice cream is unapologetically further chocolatey. Not one, not two, however three sorts of chocolate make their means into this wealthy and creamy chocolate lover’s dream of an ice cream.
What I’m CRAVING: The most important, greenest, crunchiest salads attainable! After a variety of journey, with extra on the horizon, I’ve fortunately made and eaten as many salads as attainable. I’ve this one on my radar to make quickly! (Crispy white beans?? I’d by no means even heard of that earlier than and now I can’t wait to strive them.)
What I’m READING: Out of the Silent Planet by C.S. Lewis. (That is the primary e book in his house trilogy.) I’m so glad I lastly picked this one as much as learn once more! I attempted studying it years in the past and couldn’t get into the primary e book, however this time, I might hardly put it down. The e book builds slowly, it isn’t a continuous thrill journey. Nonetheless, this is a wonderful learn nonetheless.
I’ve challenged myself to learn extra classics and non-fiction and this one was a wonderful strategy to start. I’ve already added the second and third books of the trilogy to my Kindle. (That is regardless of the actual fact I’ve owned onerous copies of this trilogy for years and nonetheless by no means learn them! I merely learn extra books when they’re on my Kindle.)
What I’m LISTENING to: The Utterly Uninteresting and Unadventurous Tales of Fred, the Vampire Accountant by Drew Hayes. This audiobook was really useful to me and it was an amusing distraction. It’s a light-weight examine a vampire who just isn’t the standard vampire. It’s a completely totally different twist on the horror style and I didn’t discover it even a bit scary.
The writing is within the first individual and works effectively for the near-monotone voice of the principle character. The narrator did a improbable job with the totally different characters, and it balanced out properly. Total, this will not have been the very best audiobook I’ve ever listened to, but it surely was enjoyable – and free from my library, which is all the time a plus. I’m testing the following e book within the sequence now.
“But when any of you lacks knowledge, let him ask of God, who offers to all generously and with out reproach, and it will likely be given to him.” James 1:5 NASB
Wishing you a stunning week filled with little issues that make you smile!
