Family life lately

6.19.2012

When I returned from running the other night this was on my computer:


If my husband sees that I've posted this he will surely crawl under his desk and hide. But how sweet! It's the little things. (Shh, don't tell him he misspelled phenomenal:)

I have a chalkboard in my kitchen that I write menus on.  Saturday it looked like this.


But what I love is that when my 5 year old saw it, he created his own menu board featuring peanut butter and jelly.  This melted my heart. How seriously precious.


And I'll end with a recipe.  I made this last night to use up my farmer's market golden zucchini (which tastes just like green zucchini).  It's pasta with salami, golden zucchini, tomatoes, feta cheese, and fresh basil.  Found the recipe here and let me tell you, it was easy, light and delicious.  Don't be discouraged by my ugly food photography.  It was super yummy and husband approved:)
