Getting Ready

Hello!!  I've been busy sprucing up the house a bit and trying to get some Spring cleaning done....yuck!  I've also been busy getting things done for Mother's Day, but I thought I would take some time out to show you one of my creations.  I love making wreaths for different holidays and occasions and you will always find a different wreath on my door.  This one though is going into our store.  What better way to welcome Summer!

Sunday Meal

I love cooking a few meals ahead of time so that way I get to spend more time with family than in the kitchen.  This is one of the meals I cooked and it's very quick and easy.  You'll need to following ingredients to make it.

1 Stick of Butter
1 Pound of Crawfish or Shrimp
2 Cups of Half and Half
Tony Chachere's or any other Seasoning Salt you would like.
1 Bunch of Shallots

Saute shallots in butter, add Crawfish/Shrimp and simmer for 10 minutes

Drain pasta and add to Crawfish/Shrimp mixture
Add Half and Half and Simmer 5 minutes.

Top with grated parmesan cheese and serve with rolls

DELISH!!!!!   ENJOY!!!!

*NOTE*  If you want to make more that what the recipe calls for, double everything.

Landscaping

Line a pathway with rocks painted in Glow in the Dark paint (Rust - Oleum Glow in the Dark Brush on Paint.  During the day they charge in the sun and in the evening they reflect the stored light.  What a great way to give a little glow to your pathway.

Bad Weather

Hi!!  I' haven't been on here in a few days because I've been trying to get some things situated with our business and Spring cleaning.....yuck!!!  Anyway, today we had some horrible weather roll through and I wanted to share with you a picture the news channel posted of a tornado.  It was about an hour aware from us with lots of wind and rain.   We were fortunate to have just rain over here though.

I hope everyone in the area made out okay.  It's looks scary!!

Garden Tip

Paint flower pots with Rustoleum's Glow in the Dark paint.  It absorbs sunlight and it glows at night.  What a great landscape and gardening idea.   Happy Friday!!!
