June 06, 2012  •  Leave a Comment

Day 158/366: Culinary I love making food when I have have and/or make the time to do it properly. It is a skill I want to develop and perfect even more! Today i made a concoction of  tagliatelle with breaded chicken, and a sauce made of light cream, white wine, onion, tomatoes, sugar peas and parmesan cheese. So good!

Day 157/366: Resilient

The physical powers of the body cannot be separated from the rationale of the mind and the emotions of the heart. They are one and the same, a compilation of a singular being. It is in the harmony of these three-body, mind, and heart- that we find spirit.
...
 
Spirit. In every language in all the Realms, surface and Underdark, in every time and every place, the word has a ring of strength and determination. It is the hero's strength, the mother's resilience, and the poor man's armor. It cannot be broken, and it cannot be taken away.
R.A. Salvatore

Day 156/366: When only mom will do One of those days where a cry was needed... For no particular reason. And, at those times, only mom will do. I love this girl so much.

Day 155/366: Pollo alla Diavola

I made this Italian chicken dish called Pollo alla Diavola for dinner today. It was very good! My 8 year old daughter ate so much, and claimed it as one of her top 3 favorite dishes. The dish had chicken breaded with a mix of bread crumbs, garlic, chili, salt and pepper, and the side dish depicted here was braised spinach and mushrooms with salt, pepper and lemon. Scrumptious!

Day 154/366: Dark Sun

The moon is always jealous of the heat of the day, just as the sun always longs for something dark and deep.
Alice Hoffman
 
Be still sad heart and cease repining, behind the clouds the sun is shining; thy fate is the common fate of all; into each life some rain must fall-some days must be dark and dreary.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
 
Some times it is the "imperfect" shots that you end up liking the bestt. Shot this on my way to IKEA, against the sun which made it all dark. But, that is what "makes" the shot me thinks.
