It was such a nice weekend. When did the beautiful weather decide to grace us with its presence? Weather like this makes me forget how much I want to leave Florida.
We had a wonderful time at the park on Saturday with Theresa and little Cash. He's getting so big, at fourteen months! My little one decided he didn't need a nap before the park and played in his crib for an hour instead, and was not the happiest little one while we were there because of it. The playground that we originally went to only had one baby swing so we went to another smaller one and that was definitely a good decision. Pictures are below, and we all had a fantastic time.
Later we came back to the house and the boys joined us for dinner. I made Chicken Bryan, steamed broccoli, couscous and Caesar salad, and then the boys decided that PW's Apple Dumplings were a must to complete the evening, so they went out for supplies and I popped them in the oven while they went out to smoke cigars.
Today! Spencer was in an awesome mood today, and we went to Lenoce's again for breakfast and then for groceries. Came home and realized Mr. Spencer cut his first tooth! I was super excited and made sure to update the baby book (I'm not so good at that) and then he was crawling around and decided to pull himself up to his feet on the coffee table! Another First!
I made Alosha's Taglierini with Bay Scallops tonight for dinner, and it was fantastic. I had to make a couple changes out of neccessity. I used fettuccine nests instead of taglierini because they didn't have tag at Publix and I don't like linguine, and I didn't have french bread or bread crumbs, so I toasted a couple pieces of potato bread and ran them through the food processor. I couldn't find chervil anywhere, so I put Italian parsley. It was still fantastic! Served with a simple salad and white wine, and I have a little leftovers for tomorrow's lunch. Yum!
Can't wait for next weekend already!

LAST GIRL ON EARTH
Thanks for stopping by April. I am sorta from Florida myself and I miss the ocean breezes and smells of the ocean more than anything else. (The bugs can stay there LOL)
Great pictures of your little ones! BTW I have a food blog too! Check it out sometime... http://his-phoenix.com/cookbook/ It is still a work in progress but it won't be long before it will be publushed for charities. :)
Sunday night is always a bit difficult for me. I don't want to go to bed because I don't want the weekend to be over. And I'm already looking towards the next weekend.
That is so awesome that you made the scallop pasta. I hope you enjoy the leftovers as much as I did. I found that the flavors just melded beautifully overnight.
The substitutions are par for the course. I'm glad you toasted bread crumbs of some kind though cause I loved the texture they provided.
This made my day! I hope you have a lovely start to your week. :)
WOW! Can yuo come over and cook for us?
