Ina's shrimp salad with some pasta, and a pretty little kitty catching some Zs. That's all. Nothing much. (And a whole lot, really. Favorite kind of day.)

Oh my - we LOVE Ina's shrimp salad!
Always enjoy seeing your photos and reading your words...even if it's "nothing much". There's a feeling of serenity here that I thoroughly enjoy. Thank you for that.

YUM!!
I have total envy of your kitters - curling up and taking a nap on a gorgeous quilt, wish that was on my 'to do' list today :)
Posted by: Amanda | June 13, 2012 at 05:06 PM
You make me smile...thank you!
Posted by: Patty | June 13, 2012 at 05:10 PM
Adore your kitties. Adore your dog. We are a dog and kitties family too. Plus a large gray rabbit named Greyfrier . Oh, the wonder of calm and quiet days at home with the "loved ones".
Posted by: Sylvia | June 13, 2012 at 05:18 PM
I'm sure you've heard this before, but you take the most incredible photos. Thank you!

Looks like a perfect day! I made a pasta salad last night. It had fresh brocolli, cucumbers and tomatoes in it with the colored noodles (can't remember the name of them). Yours looks very yummy!!
I'm loving all of those photos from your last post too!
xoxo...Gloria

I was wondering if you could tell us about your door with the wall paper on it. Or is it fabric. You may have talked about it before. I would love to do something like that on the front of my daughter's bedroom door and maybe on the back of mine.

Recipe for that delicious looking pasta dish, (pretty) please.

Around our home we call days like this, pajama days.
No errands, stay at home, catch up on the fun things, sit with the dogs sort of day.
ah, life is good ... smile
Posted by: Lacy | June 13, 2012 at 08:28 PM
I'd say you are doing things right!
We are inching our way toward the weekend and a lot of celebrating... dad, graduates, and birthdays... what we are most excited about? Pajama day... we vow to be as lazy and content as humanly (*kittyly?*) possible.
Posted by: Natalie, the Chickenblogger | June 13, 2012 at 08:39 PM
A very pretty little kitty.
Posted by: Lisa G. | June 13, 2012 at 08:49 PM
We had a strawberry kind of day. For some reason they taste so much better coming from your own garden...
