I like beers I can call by their first name; A castle on the skirt from my birthday party outfit (because I’m a princess on my b’day, of course); Coco having a hard time waking up; My birthday cupcake from Gigi’s

A spoonful of coffee ice cream in my cup a joe instead of creamer; All my birthday cards (real mail!!); Wore a yellow shirt to go shopping and tried on yellow jeans at LOFT – so this happened; Birthday dinner at my favorite pizza place

My Week in Over-Processed Photos (and a recipe)

Recipes two weeks in a row? Don’t get used to this. Here are some snapshots from the past 7 days, followed by a really easy side dish that’s good for you. Well, it has a vegetable in it, so I’m assuming it’s good for you.

Barrels of wine at Cooper’s Hawk (I only drank one); yes, my cat again…she’s cute and she can’t help it; tiramisu truffle and raspberry/white chocolate goo; the stuff you need for my recipe below

OK, lemme give you this tasty baked zucchini recipe. I’m not even going to give you measurements because the ingredients are: zucchini, garlic seasoning, and mozzarella. You could not possibly have too much of any of these things.

Slice up dem zucchinis and put them on a cookie sheet. Sprinkle on Mrs. Dash garlic & herb seasoning. Bake at 350 for 10 minutes. Take it out and turn on the broiler. Throw on shredded mozzarella. Broil those babies for about 5 minutes. In case you’ve never used the broiler before (no judgment here), you have to leave the oven door open a crack and watch your food like a hawk. As soon as the cheese gets a little brown and bubbly, you’re done!

I am picky about eating vegetables (I’m still a child apparently), but put cheese and garlic on just about anything and I’ll eat it.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
