I'm on a cooking roll. Fabulous dinner last night that included three different new(isn) recipes. The Dijon Tarragon Cream Chicken was outstanding. The sauce went perfectly with the Roasted Potatoes and Roasted Asparagus (recipes coming).

I doubled the sauce from the original recipe. You'll thank me…you could drink the sauce.

Last night I went over to Lisa's for the premier of "Bachelor in Paradise." As per Lisa's normal attention to detail and a theme, her home was decked out in tropical flare!

York Peppermint Patties are one of my favorite candies ever. 

Breakfast this morning was a Special K Flatbread Breakfast Sandwich and some pineapple.

After camp drop offs, I went to Barre class. It was tough today!
