As Seen On Instagram {Uno}

Monday, June 2, 2014

As many of you know, I love Instagram!!  I don't have Facebook and very rarely tweet, making Instagram my social media vice.  

In case you aren't following along {@merecdavison} here are some of my favorite posts from the past week.  What have you been posting and loving?

Happy Monday!!!

For the previously mentioned Memorial Day BBQ I made crostini with homemade ricotta, sweet corn, green onions, jalepeno and a drizzle of honey!

On Thursday Erin and I hosted a little Margarita + Guac get together with Rachel, Marissa and Michelle!  Erin is not only the sweetest blogger on the block, but, she also has this incredible view!  Thanks for having us, Erin!!

On Friday, I attended the opening night of  Lizzie at Portland Center Stage!  Fret not, a full review is coming later this week.

For Sunday Supper my friend Jess and I made fresh pasta.  I loosely followed this recipe, and ended up adding more olive oil and an extra egg.  It was delicious!!  I made a simple sauce of cherry tomatoes, roasted red pepper, onions, LOTS of garlic and fresh basil.  We topped it with a generous helping of fresh ricotta.  Steamed artichokes were the perfect side.

After dinner we walked over to Salt and Straw to check out the June Cocktail Series!  While I tried all of the flavors the Lemon Amaretto Sour Sherbet was my favorite!  Jess opted for the Chocolate Chip Mint Julep which was pretty fantastic.  They have also added Coconut with Petunia's Salted Caramel Bars to the regular menu!  It just so happens to be vegan and gluten free.  I actually had a split cut of the Coconut and Lemon Amaretto.  It was amazing!!!
