Spaghetti with tuna and peas

Spaghetti with tuna and peas

I had a busy and productive morning.

I made some calls in preparation for my trip to the shore this weekend. Did the odd errand or two...

But the most exciting thing I did is make some updates to my blog. 

There is now a reply button in the comments section AND there a new button/option to follow my blog via email - Woot!!

When lunch time rolled around I felt like some pasta.

I put one serving of pasta to boil in salted water. When the pasta was cooked halfway - I threw in a handful of peas.

The pasta and peas were drained when the pasta was al dente.

I opened a can of tuna - mixed it all together with a bit of cracked black pepper on top. Easy peasy :-)

But, unfortunately, the dish lacked that sumthin, sumthin so I added in a squeeze of lemon and a healthy squeeze of mustard. 

Much better!

I am also working on my About Me page - that should be up in a day or so - so check back :-)

Pancake love

Last night was a tough one. Abby was up most of the night with a stomach ache((((

But after I gave her some stomach medicine and lots of belly rubs she is as right as rain this morning!

To celebrate Abby's miraculous recovery I made pancakes this morning. I used the good old fashioned Bisquick pancake mix. 

My first pancake turned out like this:

Isn't it a beauty?? And it was kind of shaped like a heart.

And then I ate them like this - 

Loaded with maple syrup and a pad of butter melting on top. Mmmmmmm.

Hah! fooled ya. Nope I at mine like this - 

 Two slices of country ham with a drizzle of mustard and eaten in taco fashion. 

This seemed like a good idea at the time - but it really didn't go together - I ended up eating them separately.

For the second pancake I did drizzle the tiniest bit of maple syrup on top - and that was amazing. 

The dogs got: 

And before I started eating - I was feeling guilty that it wasn't healthy enough so I added some orange slices.

And check out my new coffee mug.

Happy Thursday everyone!!
