I've been so busy organizing and enjoying life. Just living in the moment. No pictures of everything I'm doing just taking time to live my life!
I do miss (as does my husband) my chronicles on this blog so I'm ready to blog away!
BrunchPatrick and I decided to treat ourselves to a delicious breakfast at the
Bongo room. We waited about 30 minutes for a table and during that time I had a vanilla latte at the coffee bar. Whoever thought of the idea to have a coffee bar in the waiting area of this popular restaurant is a genius. It made our wait time fly by!
The star of my breakfast was the Banana Bacon Pancakes!
Yep, pieces of crispy bacon were the star of this dish:
The flavors of the banana, the sweet praline sauce and the salty bacon mixed better than you could ever imagine!
These were 1000% better than
my attempt at making bacon pancakes. But I'm up to the challenge!
DinnerI made a very fresh salad packed full of veggies!
In the mix:
- Red pepper
- Yellow pepper
- Orange pepper
- Cucumber
- Red onion
- Lettuce
- Parmesan cheese
- Newman's Own Dressing (My favorite!!!)
Patrick grilled us some spicy turkey burgers. They were good and even better topped with some spicy A1 Sauce!
In the mix:
- Ground turkey
- Cayenne pepper
- Black pepper
- White pepper
- Salt
- Garlic Powder
- Cubed garlic cheddar cheese
July Tid-Bits
Over the last month I've been exploring this wonderful city I live in. The parks are great to walk around and take in all the scenery as well as people watch (one of my favorite past times!).
We've had a few big storms come through the city and the sky is always so beautiful once the storm rolls through.
Great sunsets:
My first rainbow in the city:
Glowing sky's:
On the food front 1 dish was definitely repeated. A salad with tons of good stuff in it. My husband not only liked this salad but he even put in a request that I make it, unheard of!!!
In the mix:
- Mixed greens
- Romain lettuce
- Red pepper
- Yellow pepper
- Orange pepper
- Cucumber
- Black olives
- Red onion
- Grilled corn
- Fresh black pepper
- White pepper
- Garlic powder
- Oregano
- Salt
- Newman's Own dressing
The mixture was perfect and the grilled corn was the perfect touch!
I hope this post finds everyone doing fantastic and having a GREAT summer! Now I'm off to catch up on all my blog friends!
Blog atcha latter!
