Dinner tonight was out of desperation

and a little laziness, ok, a lot of laziness, LOL. I don't have a lot of food in my house and I was ravenous. I was surfing restaurant websites, something I do when I'm hungry and lazy, which means I do it a lot! I was trying to decide if I wanted to go to the grocery store or go get take out from somewhere. Then I remembered I had pulled out this bag of frozen scallops and put them in the fridge yesterday to defrost. Which means I had to cook. I really had no plan on how to cook them but the suggested way of cooking was with a little butter, olive oil and garlic. I had some spaghetti in the cupboard so decided to have scallops over pasta but I needed more so I also cooked it with lima beans and spinach and when I was done cooking I sprinkled on some parmesan. This was a totally thrown together meal and it was fabulous! I had to resist the urge to go back for seconds. This is the way I normally cook. I pretty much figure almost every thing I cook is a variation of stir fry, LOL. I guess that's why when I see recipes with a lot of ingredients I get overwhelmed and dont' try them. I'm working on that as you all are aware. Linda even talked me through making homemade guacamole and it was delicious! Maybe one day she will blog the recipe for you, LOL. I would except I don't remember what all went in it, LOL.

Alright, it's bedtime for me. Time to read the newest Keri Arthur book. Lina lent me that before she even read it. That's why her name is on my butt.Good thing a tattoo parlor wasn't close by that night, LOL.

That looks fab. I like to experiment too, but alas, my kids don't always like it. But then again, they love to eat raw veggies (a lot) and fruit, so as long as they're eating them, I don't really care that I don't have to cook!

That looks delish...the pasta, not your butt! You always go where angels fear to tread, first toes, now your butt. You rock, J x

I can't believe you put your ass up on your blog! Wait, actually I can believe it LOL!

Pasta looks great except for the lima beans, take those off, and I'm into it LOL! MWAH!

I experement not out of the urge to creatively cook but out of desperation, LOL. My nephew loves fruits and veggies and I always loved watching him eat the good stuff.

LOL, well you know me, I like to keep things interesting. You know tomorrow we'll be seeing a pic of Nes' ass on her blog *G*.

Aimee, when the ass looks as good as mine, of course I have to share. Plus, I knew it would get a laugh. This was the pic I was looking for last night while we were chatting, LOL. At least I didn't take my own ass shot (hmmm, the wheels are turning...).

You know I love the lima beans!

I'm like Karen. I love experimenting with different foods, but I have an audience that isn't open to new ideas. The kids and DH would never eat your creation, but I sure would!! Except for the limas. I'm just not a fan of them.

I am so not surprised to see your butt up there for the whole of blog world to see. LMAO!! I was dying laughing when I saw that. But you're right, when you've got if, flaunt it. *G*

OMFG!!!! You put your ASS on your blog.. LMFAO... You crack me up, sista... WHO are you shackin' that took a picture of your ASS for a website? KINKY, KINKY, KINKY... Next, we'll be seeing Leiha porn inspired by JULIAN!! WAAAAAAA!

BTW, although your food looked good, I would not eat it.. A) ick-scallops.. B) ick-lima beans..

Pretty healthy though! xoxo, K

I am not surprised your boys aren't very experimental but remind V, if he didn't try mango, he wouldn't know he loved it.

Sara, you don't want to throw down a gauntlet like that, EG!

Kristi, that pic was taken in Vegas at the last sleepover. I would like to blame the alcohol but unfortunately, I let Lina mark me BEFORE we went out, LOL.

Well you know I've already been in a porn with Julian so been there done that, LMAO!

Yum, I love scallops and lima beans!!!!

Nes said...

It's only because you said it's your ass, but it could have been a leg or something. And puh, you're just saying that because that because you know I have none to show. Hrumph. Why do you always go hurting my feelings like that, chick? *sobs*

And because of that, I'm not gonna comment about how good your salad looks and how great your recipe sounds. BAH!

Brian read your blog and said "Do I need to worry about her?" I said "Yes"...
