So lets see, I had a very nice relaxing but yet busy weekend. I did have my massage on Saturday morn, and then was busy the rest of the afternoon, working in my flower gardens, preparing the veggie garden, and cleaning out the flower boxes on the windows and putting in some pansy's! I also found some beautiful ferns for my baskets on the front porch, so I was a busy girl!
I hope everyone had a great weekend, and now it is back to my 3:30 morns, teaching aerobics and playing online, so stop in and see me, before a busy weekend attacks me again *giggles*
Over the next couple weeks, I will be very busy outdoors, getting everything put back together from the winter, and also waiting on my new screen door for the screened porch to come in, so I might be busy doing that this weekend. When the weather gets warm enough, I will sit outside some, but until then, I will be posting some pictures and maybe a few videos. All the flowers are about in full bloom outside, so I need to be getting some pictures of those!
Well off to my little corner to play....waiting on you....
It is Friday ahh yes it is, I have had a bit of a rough week, and even broke my toe yesterday...I still have lots I need to get to this weekend, but gonna walk easy as I do it LOL, but there are things calling and things to do. So in this blog I wanted to share a recipe, well I am yet to try, but it may be my Sunday Din Din :) as kick back to relax...ohh yes this is relaxing isn't it?
Yes I do believe it is, but on to other things and yummy sweet things for our bellies!
So here it is!
Salmon and Noodle Bowl.
Ingredients:
1 9 oz pkg. refrigerated fettuccine
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 lb. skinless, boneless 1-inch thick salmon, cut into about 8 pieces or more
salt and pepper
6 cups packaged fresh baby spinach
1/2 cup bottled roasted red or yellow sweet peppers
1/2 cup balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing
Preparation:
1. Prepare pasta according to your package directions, whatever type you decide to use, done up packages or boil and cook it yourself.
2. Meanwhile, brush 1 tablespoon olive oil on salmon. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat an extra large skillet over medium heat and add salmon, cook around 8 to 12 minutes, or until the salmon starts to flake, turning it once. Remove the salmon, cover and keep warm. Add spinach, sweet peppers, and remaining oil to skillet. Cook and stir for about 1 to 2 minutes, until the spinach is wilted. Drain pasta, add to skillet, and then add the dressing, until you coat it all very nicely, season with a bit more salt and pepper, then divide the spinach mixture among however many bowls you would like, then top with your salmon.

kissssssssssssssssssss
It's almost here, I thought I had posted a blog last week about working on the pool this weekend :) but I must not have saved it...anyhow long story short, it all got done. Everything is pulling together, and if the weather doesn't permit in the next few weeks to sit outside, me no getting in water yet LOL, I will have some pictures up next week...
So the new liner is the boulder swirl, and on the invoice and papers I got, it says, gives a lagoon type appearance, it looks so deep and dark when you get the liner filled up with water, the sides are the rock look and the bottom the deep swirl. I was so upset when the liner ripped last year, but after getting this liner in and the new wood benches around the top, I am just so pleased, and can not wait for outdoors and pool time fun with you all!!
So I am looking forward to swimming and getting naked in the outdoors!!
I installed the new windows live writer this morning!
This is really, the pictures are so easy to add! I love it, thanks for sharing this with us Addy, it makes things hmm so much more fun!
It seems like I have a billion things to do outdoors around the house. In my wishing for spring it just seems like I get snow, LOL so looks like indoors and maybe a little getting out and about and going to a couple stores this weekend instead. I know the weather will clear up a bit to start some projects soon. I can not wait to get out by the pool again, and yes that is one of the projects that need done.
On that said, I hope everyone has a beautiful weekend, I might mess around with some new recipes and relax a little bit this weekend. I do miss everybody so much on the days I take off, but I do have to get things done.
So maybe on Monday I will have some new recipes to share, I can mess around with this weekend, as I am getting some things done around the inside of the house, there is always something to be done, I just really want to be outside LOL getting things done, wow I have spring fever, cabin fever, whatever it's called. Spring flowers will be covered by snow by morning, the heaviest snow is suppose to hit after midnight, hmm might be nice to get out and 4wheel and maybe take some pictures of it, if enough falls, seems like the weather people just are not sure. One moment its a couple inches, the next its suppose to be a foot hee hee so I guess morning will tell.
Kisses and I will see everyone Monday, with errands, shopping and things to do, I will be a busy girl.
Love Elona
