Wishes and Dishes

Mr. Wishes and I have been trying to make some lighter meals lately now that summer is here and this is a dish I threw together Monday night for dinner.  It was just something quick and easy to put together and I was completely amazed at how flavorful, yet simple, it was.  It was even more [...]

Did everyone have a great weekend?  I had a really nice one.  Friday I got a job of baby-sitting for my 16-month-old adopted “niece”, Elliana, all day and night while my friends/her parents went to Niagara Falls for a special dinner with their relatives.  I absolutely adore (translation= borderline obsessed with) her so, needless to [...]

I hope everyone is having a great week so far.  As for me, I’m feeling under the weather.  It is never fun to come back from a great vacation only to get sick but I’m thankful that it happened after I got home so it didn’t ruin anything for me.  It doesn’t help that it’s [...]
