Nice little Sunday

Hi there, hope you all had a nice Sunday!

I did lots of relaxing–and nothing too productive. I did go get some fro-yo with Meg:

 Peanut Butter and cookies and cream with some mini chocolate chips! Yum. But that little cookie thing on top–not so good. It was a majah letdown.

After hanging out and chatting for a while I decided to impromptu go out to the new LA Fitness and check it out. I was pretty impressed, I just wish there was an indoor track. I got a pretty good deal, and I’m excited about heading out there tomorrow! 🙂

Dinner:

 Shrimp pasta and garlic bread…one of my favorite indulgent meals!

 Same salad as last night, but with caesar dressing.

And to top it off:

The drink I have been talking about making! It was very good, but I think would be better served outside on a hot day–rather than the gloomy day that has been happening over here!

Blog dogs (having a lazy Sunday, too):

They spend hours looking out that window.

Well I am going to go read and enjoy the rest of my night before a crazy yet exciting week!

First time going to the gym tomorrow–what is a good elliptical work out I should try?

Mmmm Mmmm Good!

I was in charge of dinner tonight…so I decided to roll with a recipe I have been dying to try! I think everyone else in the blog world has tried this before I have!

That’s right, I’m talking about Mmmm Sauce!

I gathered my ingredients:

Followed the recipe–while using my awesome food processor:

(For some reason I did not expect almonds to be in there!)

(I also thanked the pantry gods that we had curry powder! Even though I read the ingredient list 853 times, I managed to keep overlooking the curry and didn’t notice it before adding all of the ingredients! Oops.)

I had to taste it before putting it in the bowl–and I must say…Mmmm! 🙂

Now, what to put it on?

Quinoa seemed to be a popular choice–so I rolled with that! I knew we would be having chicken…so I finished the dish off with a salad. In the mix was romaine, chick peas, cucumbers (from my own garden), and more Mmmm sauce!

But the meal still needed a little something:

I love goldddddd!!

Pretty healthy (and delicious) meal, if I do say so myself! Thanks to Mama Pea for the recipe and to CaitlinHTP for not being able to quit the sauce.

End of dinner entertainment:

Notice their matching toys! Puppy lurve ❤

…and you can thank my new toy for all of the lovely pictures tonight! 🙂

xoxo.
