Sunday stuff

Before I get to the Sunday stuff, I have to mention our Saturday night dinner. A recipe from Style at Home - Asparagus Linguini with almond butter crisp. We tweaked the recipe by using homemade egg noodles that we made last week. The combination of roasted garlic, butter, and almonds is so yummy and the arugula gives it that unexpected twist. Try this and you'll forget about tomato sauce for a while.


Perfect morning for a walk on the Reservoir Trail. And so lucky to have come upon another bluebird couple right at the trailhead.

Look who's back at work after taking the whole winter off? Yes, my buddy from Venezia.
Made a huge apple crisp from a new recipe. Did not have enough brown sugar so had to make do with white but Mr. Cowboy tells me that it makes no difference - it is nice and tasty.
It has been a while since I sat and just made cards but today I did just that and managed to make ten new ones. Will try to make ten more tomorrow; my card holder at the store needs to be re-stocked asap.

River walk

It was cold and windy down by the river so we walked at a much faster pace then we are used to.

The fountain is still quiet but it won't be long until the sound of water follows us as we walk by.

Another hike

We hiked a new trail, rocky and very steep. We quietly walked by a doe well hidden in the trees.


But again the view was well worth it.

The lasagna hike

For lasagna this good,
You must start with this: flour and free-range eggs.
Knead until nice and smooth, let rest for half an hour.
These spaghetti noodles were made with olive oil dough alla Lidia. Will let you know if they are any good.
A little pisolino after that wonderful lunch? Not a chance. And even though it looked like it was going to rain or snow, we enjoyed our hike up to the top along with dozens of other people and their dogs.




And to cap off a great day, a bluebird sighting on our way down the mountain.
