Almost Spring

With spring officially arriving next week, I am starting to feel a little rejuvenated after this long and cold winter

  Mother nature has been teasing us with a few warm days, allowing me the anticipation of long walks with the dogs and buds on the trees

 One of the pleasures of winter, is hunkering down at home and preparing hearty meals for family and friends.

Grilled salmon, jeweled rice and caper lemon sauce

Seared scallops, topped with pine nuts & crispy garlic, with Pea/Parmesan risotto

There were even occasions where we were treated to meals out!

Nicoise Salad at Aqua Terra

Polenta fries at Days on Front

Crab Cakes at Days on Front

Even though winter has its fabulous moments.....

.....I am still looking forward to warm weather!

While I wait, I will enjoy all of nature's beauty..
