He would NEVER eat this

My phone thinks it has a good camera...it lies...

My husband likes his man food....you can't blame the guy.  Pizza, cheesburgers, steak, ribs...it's all delicious

BUT

every now and then I decide it's time to go through the effort to make a seperate meal for myself, something girly, light, with...heaven forbid...vegetables...eeek!

My friend Pam & I have done a few co-op grocery baskets lately through Bountiful Baskets, and so I desperately needed to use some asparagus and tomatoes.  I do NOT enjoy raw tomatoes...I'll eat them....but I don't salivate over the little fruit, so I needed a way to work them in and enjoy them. 

Thus was born.......

Lemon Spaghetti w/ Shrimp, Asparagus, & Tomatoes

It was light and delicious and vegetabaly and girly.  Perfect. 
(Shout out to my girl Giada De Laurentis for the inspiration)

4 Girls Sitting in the Grass

I got to go to my cousin Sasha's wedding this weekend in Yuma....lucky for me I have some awesome family in Yuma too!!

These girls are the girls I grew up with, loved, threw dirt at, ate thanksgiving on a tailgate with, and they have turned into some of my really great friends. 

I feel SO lucky to be close to my cousins.  A few are missing, but if we all got together it would be like we were all 5 again.  I LOVE them!!
