Today

Eaten: Delicata squash with rosemary, sage, and olive oil.

now I am going to the grocery store and have grand plans for salmon dish with pasta, a tabbuleh, and a beet salad. trying to decide if I want to make a salmon dish with pasta and a cream sauce that self.com swears is "healthy" which sounds pretty decadent... Most of all I'm glad the sun is out and I just want to get to the grocery store and back so I can get out in the sun.

Anyways, it's nice sitting here looking out the window at the sunny day and at Jack sitting in a sun spot.

I'm going to Salsa Rueda dancing later and I think I am going to cook some Salmon.

Cheers.

Checking in

Hi,

I haven't posted in a long time and since Facebook is losing its appeal but I still want to spend time on the internet I thought I would check back in with my blog. And what better thing to talk about than thyme? Or time? This reminds me, I should plant some thyme in my garden. My last plant died :(

Rebecca, if you read this, I saw on Facebook that you are going to Costa Rica, my mom just got back from there and I hope you have fun!

Anyways, my garden is doing pretty well I have heavily pruned the roses and they are starting to come back but the lavender is not and I am not sure if I did not prune it hard enough. The ceanothus is growing like gang busters though.

In terms of cooking, I am loving the Self.com website food section as every day it seems to have new healthy recipes. I have lost around 30 lbs recently from changing my eating habits and exercising more (despite a set back in February due to overconsumption of Ben and Jerry's - what can I say Ben and Jerry were my Valentines dates).

Anyways healthy is where it's at these days. More sleep, more greens, more garden, more walks. Speaking of walks, I'm about to go for one now. Have a nice day and hope all is well.

PS Maria if you read this I am going to try and make your sashimi bowl which I have not made yet but I have to ask at New Leaf if they have sashimi grade tuna?
