really I do...but,
I am not really enjoying the unbearable heat and humidity this summer.
It drains my soul in every way possible and does it in no time at all.
It is impossible for me to spend any length of time outdoors, even with this beautiful pool.
It looks lovely, I know, but it is a lot of work, and the hubs has been doing all of it.
The only way I can stay cool in the pool is if I am completely under water.
I feel so much guilt that we don't use it more,
it is lovely with a breathtaking view of the river we live on.
My Hydrangea are sporting their second blooms, these flowers are from several different plants.
To the left, on the table, are rocks my niece gave me from New Zealand,
they are always right there in that spot.
They are "purplish", you can't tell that in the pictures.
Fresh, summer foods that are light and easy.
We really like cold pasta salad and I make it often in the summer.
I add red onion, red pepper and lot's of dill and green onions from my garden.
The ingredients...
the recipe card I use for the Pasta Salad, in case you would like to try it.
I do not add chicken to mine.
You can see the recipe card is well loved, I have made this so many times.
I have been making these eggs for breakfast.
I don't usually like scrambled eggs, but this is different, more like a fluffy omelet.
Made in the microwave with just an egg and mayonnaise, this is delicious and ready in 50 seconds.
The link to the recipe is here.
I always top mine with "Everything But The Bagel" Seasoning.
We really love the fried shrimp, with fresh cut fries at Shore Fresh.
The also have the best new England Clam Chowder.
We are in the middle of a heat wave here at the Jersey Shore...
it was 104 degrees here yesterday.
I went outside to water the garden and snap a few pictures.
I'll share how the garden is growing tomorrow.
If I haven't melted, thank goodness for air conditioning!
