Vegetable Egg scramble

So I was in the mood for some eggs and vegetables so I diced up some red bell pepper and sauteed it with some spinach and minced garlic.  Then I added two eggs, some cheddar and mozzarella cheese and it was really great with my teavana chai tea.  While I was enjoying this delicious concoction, Josie started barking and I was delighted to see about four hot air balloons right in front of our property.  It was an awesome morning with gorgeous weather in the desert!

Steak Salad

My sweet husband left me with one whole rib-eye and another half of a rib eye, and told me to just put it on salad.  So I searched Pioneer Woman's site and found two wonderful recipes.  I made my own salad-in-a-bag mix with romaine, sliced red cabbage, sliced red onion and grated carrot.  Then I made PW's dressing recipe with soy sauce and put in a jar.  Then I made PW's onion straws (WOW) to put on top!!!  So I assembled the whole thing;  salad, sliced perfectly grilled rib-eye, awesome asian inspired dressing and the onion straws that are to die for.   I felt like I was in a fancy restaurant.  Try it, you'll like it!!!!

Saying goodbye is painfully hard to do. Already looking forward to next visit!!

Love you all so much!  xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox

Welcome to my blog.  I decided to blog about about things I love, people, places and things.  My family is what I love the most so I will be blogging about them a lot.  This way I can add pictures and communicate with everyone whenever I want to and they can read it whenever they can.  Sounds like a good plan to me.  At the present time I am in Chicago with my beautiful daughter Darcy and her amazingly wonderful husband Eric and their three beautiful children.  I am so glad to see them and they are growing up so fast.  Here are some pics
