Mixed Fruit Salad with Honey-Lemon Yogurt Dressing – Amazing Summer Fruit Salad with grapes, blackberries, apples, pineapples and crunchy pecans mixed with a simple, yet healthy and refreshing Honey-Lemon Yogurt Dressing.
Sunday, is the one day in the week I take some me time to prepare some new recipe, a new lip-shine, too, paint my nails, and catch up on my social network;s. Setting aside little time for myself relieves stress and is an opportunity to recharge my batteries. If I don’t take care of myself, I can’t take care of the rest of the family, know what I’m sayin’? You, too?? High Five!
Usually, I just hop over to our nearby Jewel-Osco and hoard all the magazines that I can find. For some Cooking Light inspiration, some new ideas some new recipe, that i need to try
I realize that me time means different things to different people. for me it is looking through my recipe magazines and find a recipe that I like and have all the ingredients to make with my family right away
Proff.
2 Ingredient Banana Pancakes. Say whaaaat?
YEP! THIS is why I love my magazines; it’s all about learning, it’s about escapism and, of course, inspiration.
