Catch Up

The weather is absolutely miserable over here. Wind, rain, thunder. They say if it was cold enough to snow we'd have 2-4 feet right now.

Yikes.

Friday night I went back to Otto. I left my point and shoot in the car and it was too dark for pictures w/my measly camera phone and I didn't eat any really yummy pizza so I'm sorry I have nothing to share.

But here's what's gone on since then.

Yesterday my mom, dad and Jen had pancakes and bacon.

I had 2 mini bagels with a bit of butter.



I had leftovers from Otto over mixed greens - the Pasta Alla Norma - penne with roasted eggplant. Me and my gallbladder skipped the yummy fresh ricotta. :(



But we did have a slice of leftover margherita pizza.



Jen and I made Orzo with shrimp, spinach and roasted tomatoes.

We roasted tomatoes at 400 for about an hour and chopped them. Sauteed some shrimp in garlic, a little olive oil and onion and then added the tomatoes, spinach and orzo.

Delicious.





Pretty table.



The finished product.



Yummy bread.



My plate:



Today we're going to see the cute CT kids for lunch and then back home. Sometime soon - though it's probably not going to tell me anything I don't already know - I'm going to give this book a read.



And that's the news for now. I'll be back later with more. Hope you're having a great weekend!
