Speaking of which, I finished a book this week. I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith.
It was written in the 40's, now back in print. I liked it. It is the story of a couple of teenage girls who live in an old English countryside castle with their eccentric father. They meet some American fellas and the story ensues. Not an all-time favorite, but an interesting and entertaining read. Thanks, Michele Holcomb for the recommendation and the loan.
What's for Dinner
Trying something new. I'm going to cook up some penne then add some diced tomatos and fresh basil from my kitchen garden. Then (because of a really good coupon) I'm going to add some Kraft Philadelphia Savory Garlic Cooking Creme.
Sounds yummy in my head, hopefully it will translate to the table well. But I figure with cream cheese, garlic, basil and pasta I can't go too wrong.
Today
Finishing up the first week of driver's ed for Gabby. Last day of art lessons for Christy and Gid. Tonight Ron will be finishing the last minute prep for our church's booth at the Maple Grove Days Expo (he is the Ward Mission Leader and the booth is going to ROCK). So, time for me to find a new book!
Have a Blessed Day...be a blessing in someone else's life!
Let us know how the Cooking creme is :) I have looked at in the store a few times but haven't bought it yet. Let us know your families opinion~

I'm finally sitting at my computer and have a chance to "catch up" on your blog. I love the background -it's so fun! I'm getting some dinner ideas :) I think my favorite is the subs & cherries and carrots- simple and delicious and summer-y. Glad you liked the book. ;) Next book I recommend is "I thought it was just me,but it isn't" by Brene Brown. Nonfiction, psych type book, but I really like it. I LOVE the rain too. It's my favorite weather.
