I had a trip to beautiful Whidbey Island today to visit friends, and next weekend I will be going to be traveling to visit my family near Harstine Island, and see my little niece and brother and sister in-law for my dad's birthday. I couldn't be more excited! And the following weekend I will be going to Portland for a day or two. Nothing seems nicer when the weather is nice around here than to get outside or go on a little day trip. The only things left (for the last month of summer) for me to do are go camping and catch an outdoor movie, and maybe some canoeing or kayaking...
I have been doing yoga in the park, hosted by Samarya Center on the weekends, running, swimming, seeing concerts at the amphitheater, hiking, cooking, visiting. Oh, and shooting and working or shooting as work (My second magazine shoot will be out this week!, with a 3rd to come out in October). Woohoo!! Friends who have moved away have been in town, and I have gotten time to visit with near and dear old friends. It just really seems has seemed like a time to reconnect with people and get back into the normal flow of it all. Which I have really needed to do after school finished. I think I can say after 2 months, I finally feel normal again. :)
Anyway, back to the post...
Here are the recipes and photos! I have to say the lamb and salmorirlio sauce tasted great, and what could be more refreshing than a basil mojito during summer? For non-alcoholic, like I had, simply omit the rum.
Enjoy!
