/ June 11, 2010I am the first to admit that I do not eat as well as I should. That said, I’m trying to do better and find healthy foods that I enjoy. This, for example? Looks CRAZY delicious!
Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and for your sweet comment! Yours is positively lovely and I can’t wait for more!

/ June 14, 2010Girl, you got me over here drooling! Can I say”Yum!” That dish looks so good. I have to try it. It’s something about food that just seems to taste better when guy’s cook it. I mean, don’t get me wrong, us ladies can throw down, but it’s just something about a beautiful dish created by a man, especially the one’s you love, that just taste and look fabulous. This is a delicious healthy meal, I know it was divine. I would love the recipe (measurements) to this dish.
Yes ,like you, I miss Domino Magazine too. Hope your having a lovely day! Wishing you a lovely week too!
God Bless,

Step 5: Cook till soft, add white wine to deglaze pan – cook off for about 2 mins at medium high heat. l
Step 6: Lower heat, add 1 tablespoon of organic butter, capers (about 1 tablespoon) & the rest of the lemon*roughly 1/2-1 lemon throughout process depending on how lemony you like fish)
Step 7: Let the mixture reduce and slightly thicken, add more salt pepper to taste
