Simple Grilled Asparagus
Three ingredients : fresh asparagus, sea salt, olive oil
Take the asparagus coat with olive oil and sprinkle sea salt. You can, grill, bake, or broil these. Just cook until they look a little dehydrated and the ends are crispy. They are great with BBQ or add them to you favorite dish like quiche. Note: Fresh Green Beans are great this way too!

Farmer’s Market Love
I have to say my favorite part of summer is the Farmer’s Market.
I encourage everyone to find their local farmer market, or local farm. Here is a link to Local Harvest.org to find the closest Farmer Market .
I will be posting some of my simple recipes I create with my farmer’s market purchases this summer and fall.

My Love List
1.My new desk chair- I am getting this chair for my birthday in a few weeks. I am really excited because I have been using a dining room chair from Ikea as a desk chair, and after about 30mins it become really uncomfortable. So needless to say my creativity has gone down due to bad seating. So I am hoping this chair will the answer to my problem. I am getting it in black, I don’t dare get it in white, since white things never stay white too long in my home. I will post pictures of my work space in a few weeks. Here is the link to the chair
2. Library card- I have to say I really never used my library card for Boston Public library, mostly because the place was so huge and there are isolated parts that never really feel safe (Don’t get me wrong I love to sit in the old part of the library and just be amazed at the knowledge and the history the place holds). Since I moved to Salem I got a library card and I am really excited. I guess I will have to start reading more books. One of the reason for getting a library card is to get access to New England historical information libraries, and since I have been working on my family tree it is useful to look up extra information on them especially the ones from Salem and the Mayflower’s.
3. Victoria Secrets Semi Annual Sale- mostly because I need new bra’s and underwear and a girl always love a sale.
4. Sex and the City 2 Movie- I havent seen it but I plan to and the previews look amazing. I am still in love with Sex and the City all these years later.
Paper Flowers
I bought this Mini Magnolia kit from Paper Source . I thought they would be nice to attached to presents. I decided to use some of them in my bathroom. The Kit come with everything except for glue and scissors. I just used Elmer’s glue. 

I didn’t like the leaves so I left them out but I did think it was a nice little project and was not hard to do. I have another package of them I will make for future presents. I have a few other of the flower kits I will try and review soon. You can buy the kits here for $14.00
