Sweets for a Saturday, New Rainbow/Meatless Recipe, My So-Called Life

"So many people decorate to impress, but my favorite houses have life in their rooms. There are animals. You can tell the owners throw parties." I saw this quote in my new Country Living magazine and just loved it. At first I was like animals?! What? I thought giraffes, zebras, monkeys. Then I was like oh... pets; pets are animals. I have animals! hehe And I love to throw parties (as evidenced by our beer fest past weekend) - such a good time. I just loved the quote and it made me smile, as did your comments on our pics. :) We really do enjoy hosting, helping our friends host, throwing and attending parties - just celebrating!! That's what it's all about sometimes.

Another thing that made me smile was this - a Sweets for a Saturday round up! She makes it SO easy to link up your dessert - and has a round up of more than 260 awesome looking desserts. If you're in need, go check out what these bloggers are baking! I entered my St. Patty's cookies - and saw that at least two other bloggers posted the same or similar ones - great minds think alike!

So my Sunday was pretty much spent resting and relaxing with the family. After throwing together a yummy (and SIMPLE) breakfast (which i'll post later this week), I just played some Dance Central, read magazines, watched seven a couple of My So-Called Life episodes and made this amazing pasta salad.

Q: Do you like blue cheese? I think it's a love or hate thing. I love it! Austin? Not so much. :(

Q: Is there a TV show from your 'younger years' you're still obsessed with? I'm still VERY addicted to Friends, My So-Called Life, SATC, Buffy... and am mildly addicted to Dawson's Creek, Gilmore Girls and Felicity as well. Why oh why did these shows ever go off the air? Sigh.
