It's the first Wednesday of the month and time for Currently with Amy. This month we're sharing what we're planting or hatching, cleaning, eating and drinking, reading and watching, & loving.
Planting or hatching (literal or figurative – like planting an idea or hatching a plan)-- It's far too early to plant anything here but Alec does have huge plans for a big garden this summer. My husband and him built some raised garden beds over December break and I know he's been pouring through seed catalogs. So eventually when it warms up enough we'll be planting all sorts of things.
Cleaning (spring)-- I don't really do any extra cleaning for spring other than cleaning up all the outdoor things/stuff when it's finally warm enough. I can't wait to pull out all our patio and deck furniture!
Eating and drinking-- I've been drinking water and eating...
 |
| omelette with homemade English muffins and grapes |
 |
| Parmesan salmon, butternut squash, asparagus, & roasted potatoes |
 |
| orange chicken with rice |
 |
| Pork chops, baked potato, & acorn squash |
 |
| fruit, nonfat plain Greek yogurt, & granola (occasionally with a sprinkle of chocolate chips too) |
Reading and watching-- Reading:How to End a Love Story, The Friend Zone, This Book Made Me Think of You, & You Never know. Watching: DMV, Best Medicine, Greek, & Memory of a Killer.
Loving-- In the last 2 weeks I've managed to get out hiking 3 times! My husband and I also had a really lovely date night this past weekend. We checked out The Bedford at Foxwoods. It was pretty good (but not worth the price). Luckily the company was top notch!

 |
| filet |

| smashed/loaded potato (a side we split) |

That's exciting about Alec's garden! I hope he gets a lot of produce and enjoys the process a lot, too. There's something about planting a tiny seed and watching a plant emerge and then seeing fruit or vegetables emerge from the plant and then consuming the vegetable that is so satisfying! Your meal out looks really good! Love a good steak at a restaurant :).
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh I am so excited about Alec's garden! Any idea of what he wants to plant just yet? Maybe I can hire him to plant one for me that will actually grow? Ha! Love the looks of some of the books you have read- adding them to my list- thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYour food all looks so good in this post. I finally made my Easter menu. I'm just not super inspired this week!
ReplyDeleteGreat job hiking three times!
I wish for spring weather for you very soon!
A big garden sounds so appealing to me, but we don't have the right sort of lot for one. We do a lot of pots though and they're easy to move around for watering if we're away. That's another reason we don't have a big garden. I feel like you need to be home to tend it. Looking forward to seeing you soon!
ReplyDeleteThat parmesan salmon looks so good! I love how you end fun nights with ice cream! I found a place in NC that will hopefully be good.
ReplyDeleteI have planned at least three times to get my chair out in our little garden. Every day it started raining 😂 Maybe I should just do it instead of planning it.
ReplyDeleteGood luck for spring weather!
I'm kind of sad that they're cancelling DMV after this season. I don't necessarily think it's a GREAT show, but it is a nice little break from all of the heavy of the world & the intense/drama shows that are out there.
