Always a favorite over here is Chicken Piccata Pasta Toss from Rachael Ray.10-IMG_1663 1-IMG_1670

I just made up a recipe for shrimp fajitas, which were pretty good, but I’ve got some notes on how to improve them next time (buy cleaned and deveined shrimp and add jalapenos to the pepper mix).04-IMG_178801-30 shrimp fajitas

My neighbor Minki sent down a delicious plate of chicken topped with pesto and hot pepper. It was delish.06-IMG_1743

And another batch of banana bread. One topped with chocolate chips. That one was gone the first day.05-IMG_1783

It was nice to have on hand when a friend stopped by for tea and a chat. It was so nice to be able to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful weather.02-4 teaLinking up with Heather at Beauty that Moves. Pop on over there to get all kinds of kitchen inspiration.
