Saturday Six Words and Sunday Shadow Shots! July 25-26, 2015

One last day before going home...

 

 

Fred kept me company every morning

at the grocery store nearby that has Wi-Fi! There wasn't any where we were staying ....

 

 

 

Fred joined us for lunch at our

most favorite NW Portland restaurant!

Piazza Italia 

 

Molto delizioso!!!

 

 

Close your eyes, inhale and you are in Italy!

 

 

This morning Minnie kissed Fred goodbye...

 

 

 

 

In a few hours we'll be home....

it's always fun to travel, but there

truly is no place like home.

Have a great weekend!

Stirfry Eggplant Dinner and Movies!

Here's a photo of Russell celebrating ? his 65th birthday!

We had a great day on March 4th -first went to Rogue Brewery

for his free Birthday humongous pint-a free hat and some appetizers...then off to a few galleries

before we had a lovely dinner at Piazza Italia. Great day!

They even sang Happy Birthday to him in Italian!

Now- back to the Alphabet Recipes....above is the Eggplant Stir Fry I found in this weeks Oregonian....coupled with the Shrimp Stir Fry below made for a tasty meal for me....unfortunately Russell wasn't too happy with the Eggplant. Good thing I had made Chocolate Chip Cookies yesterday! So- plus points for the Shrimp and I guess we'll pass on the Eggplant from here on out...win some and lose some!

Here are the two recipes plated below....I thought they were yummy....


Now- to the movies...the first one is of some kids juggling and others playing music at
Portland's Saturday Market.... the following is of a very seasonal theme.....

Happy St Patricks Day!
