Harvest time

Yesterday marked the first basil harvest. 

RIP basil leaves:  They've gone to that tasty pasta salad heaven in the sky

Strawberries + cheese + chocolate

Last night hubby and I ate a home cooked dinner with some new church friends.  I brought dessert and tried out a new recipe:  strawberry goat cheese brownies. 

They were delicious (and the strawberries made them "healthy.")

50%? Not too shabby.

Awhile back I wrote about my love of the show  Extreme Couponing.  While I will never achieve the ranks of the great ones, I was inspired to try couponing.  A couple of days ago we visited our local supermarket and I had an "extreme moment."  We purchased 5 Lean Cuisine entrees (originally 3.19 each, now on sale for 2.00 each), used my coupon, (buy 4 Lean Cuisines and save $2.25) and then received a box of ice cream for FREE (store deal.)  (Oh yeah, we also bought some fish.  Yum.)

50% savings!  Too extreme.
