And not because anything happened. Because it didn't.
Actually, it was the lack of having anything to do that made it so awesome. I slept in and made a special breakfast. Blueberry Lemon Oven Pancake... YUM.
(still working on getting the recipe online for this, stay tuned... it's super yummy!)
After lounging around, reading, and packing a few boxes for our upcoming move, I decided to head to the pool for a swim.
Bummer... the hours were different and I got there just as the pool was closing. No swim for me.
Headed back home and started feeling like making dinner. Turkey Burgers!
M wanted a spicy Cajun version with melted cheddar and ketchup. I was feeling a little more herb-a-licious, so I went with an Herbes de Provence version with mozzarella, lettuce, onion and yogurt sauce on a toasted whole wheat bun.
The salad was actually my favorite part of the meal. I came across a cucumber and banana pepper salad on a blog and decided to put my own spin on it, using what I had in my crisper drawer.
Turned out awesome.
Light... fresh... perfect side dish for my mood. The recipe is on my recipage, here!
And what would a holiday meal be without dessert?
We had patriotic sundaes - homemade vanilla ice cream with fresh blueberry/strawberry sauce and whipped cream (of course!).
We finished up our day off chilling on the couch with a movie, then reading a book. Hope your Memorial Day was as relaxing as ours was. I needed a down day!
