Recipe Link Love

I don't know about you, but I love finding new recipes and food ideas online. Anytime that I am stuck for supper ideas, I usually am able to find a recipe to try that break our routine up a bit. I have an ever growing list of recipes bookmarked and thought that you might like to try some of them! Here are some delicious sounding (and looking) recipes from across the web.  Let me know if any are a hit... or a miss!

Summer Getaway

Dan and I took a few days to ourselves last week for a summer getaway. Dan had some time off of work (which was much-needed), and I had a few days before school started, so we decided to have a mini vacation. We took a little road trip and managed to take a photo or two while we were away. We had a blast unwinding, walking, camping, snacking and enjoying the sights and sounds of a few coastal towns. I could move to one of those towns in a day! So sweet and laid back, with beautiful homes, vegetable gardens, artisans, farmers' markets and natural foods galore. What an awesome vibe! 

We spent the night camping at a provincial park that was on its own island - cool, eh? After stopping at a convenience store and buying s'mores supplies, we built a little fire and sat out in the dark. Dan and I both forgot to pack our air mattress and pillows, so it was a bit of a rough sleep... although it certainly helped us to get up nice and early the following day :) A yummy gourmet breakfast, a stop at a shop or two, and we were on our way.

I'm trying to get into using Photoshop for school, so I'll let the photos do the talking:

Have you taken some time off over the summer for a afternoon, day, or week away? Do share!

Happy Thursday!
