The weekend recap

Devon and I had a really good weekend..... well the best you can have when you're on antibiotics that make you severely nauseous 24/7 ... I can now talk about it because I have one pill left and i'm excited to resume my normal life after 10 days of misery. This weekend was Conference and it was amazing, so motivational. It was the first time Dev was able to watch all five sessions since we've been married ( he always worked on Saturdays). We also took Maui on some fun walks and watched a ton of movies. The weather was amazing yesterday it was like 28 degrees and SO humid I don't think we shut our balcony door once this weekend. I also bought my first plant of the year a tulip plant...maybe living in a new climate will help my track record of killing all plants.. i'll keep you posted. For being so sick I ended up still making two really good dinners, cedar plank maple salmon and herb crusted roast beef. It taught me a good lesson that sometimes less is more in term of ingredients. I generally use a lot more ingredients when making my salmon but both Dev and I couldn't stop eating it. I also made Ghee (a.k.a clarified butter) and am converted for life! I made it because I can't eat dairy but have refused to let go the most amazing substance in the world.... butter... but it doesn't love me back and margarine is taboo in my world. If you haven't made Ghee you must it's nothing like store bought. If you have a lactose/dairy intolerance this is your dream come true! I will start posting recipes soon so you can enjoy some of my delicious creations!
