New Book and New Recipe!




A couple of great things have happened to me lately. I finished a fabulous book and I made a fabulous dinner. Both my husband and I read Fall of Giants, by Ken Follett. It is an amazing book! It's the first in a trilogy and follows 5 families through the experiences of WWI. As a history nerd, this book was right up my alley. Excellen
t! The only problem? The next two books don't come out until 2012 and 2014. I don't know that I can wait that long!!! Please Mr. Follett - hurry up!




The delicious dinner I made was Quesadillas de Camarones. Or for the non-Spanish speaking people - Shrimp Quesadillas. I got this recipe from Pioneer Woman; an amazing blog to check out if you would like! These quesadillas were absolute heaven, and so super easy to make. Hubby has declared it his new favorite meal ever. He even wanted it for leftovers - a huge
no-no in his world usually. Vons had shrimp on sale in their
seafood counter and the rest of the ingredients were cheap! I made a simple salsa verde using tomatillos, garlic, white onion, and cilantro to go with the shrimp filled pieces of heaven. Amazing!!!!! If you want the recipe, click on the link for quesadillas above and follow the step by step instructions. At the end of the instructions is the printable recipe.



Thus concludes today's post. Enjoy!!!
