I saw a picture of Eva Longoria (Desperate Housewives) and I had to share!!! See, Hollywood actors are just like us when they don't put on a ton of make up and have somebody to airbrush all of their pictures!!! :)

Without make up



With make up



She doesn't look terrible without the makeup, just really different!

I'm not a huge fan of fish but I am trying different ways to cook and marinade fish with the hopes that I'll start to like it! We tried this recipe the other night and it was SOOOO good! I didn't even need tartar sauce!

Dill Salmon Recipe

1 cup Dijon mustard
2/3 cup white wine or chicken broth
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup cider vinegar
3 T soy sauce
1 cup vegetable oil
1/2 minced fresh dill
1 t teaspoon pepper
1 salmon fillet (1 inch thick and 3 pounds)

In a bowl, whisk the mustard, wine or broth, brown sugar, vinegar and soy sauce until well blended. Gradually whisk in oil. Stir in dill and pepper. Place salmon in a shallow glass dish and pour 2 cups of the marinade over salmon. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade for basting.

Coat grill rack with nonstick cooking spray before starting grill. Drain and discard marinade. Place salmon, skin side down, on grill. Grill, covered, over medium hot heat for 5 minutes, then baste the fish. Grill 7-9 minutes longer or until fish flakes easily with a fork, basting occasionally.

YUM!
Good Deal On The Internet!!!

Our Weekend! We didn't do much this weekend, run a few errands, cleaned up the house and relaxed!! Here are some pictures of the dogs from this weekend! As you can see, they slept alot :)








This is a weird looking bug that I found on our patio. It looked just like a twig before I realized that it had antenna's and legs.

Seriously great TV!!

Tonight has two of my favorite shows on!! Grey's Anatomy and So You Think You Can Dance. I have lots of TV shows that I like to watch (a downfall of mine) but I *heart* Grey's Anatomy and I'm so happy the reruns started this week. So You Think You Can Dance is so much fun to watch and just makes me wish I was up there dancing around! Unfortunately, I have homework so one eye is on the TV, one eye on the computer (homework), one hand typing, and one hand on the remote flipping back and forth between the shows! I am multi-talented!! :)

Here is my blog. I have no idea what I'll put in here, possibly random thoughts, interesting facts I come across, restaurant reviews, bitching about daily live, my photography experiences and just plain stuff. I don't know if anybody will even read my little blog (besides my mommy!!), but I thought I would try it out! :) I tried the MySpace page, but I can't access it at work, and I don't have the time to build the page and try to figure out how to make my pictures smaller so I can upload them to my page. Enjoy the blog!!
