A black and white stripe is so amazingly flexible. You can easily add color or patterns. One of my favorite outfits includes a leopard scarf and black and white striped top because I love to mix and match. Today, I was really liking the cool tones with this outfit. Not to mention this is one of my favorite scarves.
By the way, here is my sassy chihuahua Donatella, if you haven't met her yet.
I wanted to share this awesome quick and a little different pasta recipe. This is great for a weeknight meal when you don't feel like being in the kitchen all evening.
1 package potato gnocchi
1 small can of corn
3/4 cup light half and half
3 ounces light cream cheese
1/2 tsp garlic salt and basil
as much or little spinach as you'd like
Cook the gnocchi as directed, while that is boiling combine he half and half, cream cheese, and spices. Stir until all mixed together. Drain the pasta, add corn and spinach, then your sauce.
This dish was surprisingly delicious! Try it out!
Anyone who knows me knows I absolutely love garlic and am constantly adding it to pretty much everything I eat. Having said that I'm all about National Garlic Day, which was April 19th. So in honor of this amazing member of the onion family, I give you 5 facts about garlic...
Garlic can help prevent infections or colds. It can also slow down aging and even prevent colon or breast cancer.
It's typically considered a "super food".
Garlic contains only 4 calories per clove, and has the ability to break down fat, increasing metabolism.
China produces around 66% of the World’s garlic.
Garlic and onions are toxic to cats and dogs. So keep Fido away from the kitchen floor when cooking with it (also onions and grapes).
Now go cook something extra garlicky!
