Another week has come and gone, and it's Wednesday again. The sun is shining and it is going to be another beautiful day in our neighbourhood. I can't believe we're already in the middle of August! In just three short weeks, the girls will be back in school and Autumn will be peeking around the corner! I am going to enjoy these last few weeks of Summer. I hope you do too!
Today, I would like to share a few photos of some of the things I've been cooking since my last blog post...

| Pancakes are a special breakfast treat. I usually make pancakes on weekends, on a day when we're all home to enjoy them. There really is nothing like homemade pancakes with butter and fresh maple syrup! |
|
 |
| I had some leftover dough and decided to make a quiche tart for lunch. Some of the special ingredients I added were Portuguese chorico-diced very finely, parsley, and gruyere cheese. I call it my Portuguese Quiche! |
 |
| I served it with assorted baby lettuce salad, tossed with a balsamic vinaigrette and garlic butter croutons. |
 |
| This was last night's dinner - my Portuguese style chicken stew. Here you can see it bubbling on the stove top with one of THE most important Portuguese seasonings - paprika! I used a whole chicken and chopped in 8 pieces. |
 |
| Here it is, served on a plate - chicken breast with sliced, boiled potatoes and plenty of sauce for dipping. A nice, crusty bread is the perfect accompaniment ! |
Thanks for stopping by. Make the most of today and fill it with sunshine and happiness. See you next time!
