These pins I have done I will link to the original blogs or websites that are linked to the pins I have repinned. Did you get that sentence; because I am still wondering if I even got it. LOL. The titles to the subjects in my blog will be highlighted and underlined so you can click on them and be directed to the blogs or websites to make it easy for you to find them(ex: recipes, instructions and so on). Now if it is a pin I have to go to a link of a blog and they also have it where it is directed to the original source, I will direct to the original source. This way it is not a trek on the web for anyone viewing this blog to find the information. I will do the trekking for you. I will however link at the bottom of the page the blog I was directed to in the first place before my journey to the original. Some of these bloggers have great info of other subjects that I don't want to leave them out. The pictures I post on my blogs are the pictures I take of my own finished projects. There may be pictures of some of the original pins to show how I got to my finished product or to compare for learning experience, such as wardrobe and crafty/DIY projects.
Also, don't be afraid to comment. I will try to respond to as many of you as I can. I want to keep this an open and friendly area for anyone. So lets have fun.

Prosciutto, Asparagus and Parmesan Spaghetti
Sorry I have been a bit slow lately with my blogging. The weather warmed up and I have been busy with other errands/chores. I know no excuses buuuuuuuut key words "warm weather". I can't help myself to enjoy it with a mojito or two. ;)
I have been doing a few pins that has been sitting, waiting, anxiously on my boards on pinterest. I am still doing what I said I would do and do these little obsessions. I have just slacked on blogging about it.
So, for the next entry, I made a recipe called Prosciutto, Asparagus and Parmesan Spaghetti that I really loved. It was so yummy with the salty, prosciutto and then the asparagus and mushroom earthiness, I could eat the whole bowl if I had two empty legs to fill. Since my husband and I are trying to eat better, I had made this dish with a bit healthier ingredients.
I used whole grain pasta and instead of heavy cream, I used 2% milk. Now, using the milk instead of cream, made it a bit runny and did not thicken up so next time I might use a little bit less and see how that works. The prosciutto turns a weird color that I did not expect but still had great flavor. I loved how easy this was to make and how quick it was. I recommend trying it. It would make a great side dish or just a main dish. I used the left overs for a side dish to steak that I grilled and woo it was good. It reheats well in the microwave too. Next time I am going to try it with heavy cream just because I want to and see how the flavors change if any at all. But for now, it is a nice light meal with my changes for the healthier way I did it. Give this one a try with the naughty version (not that its a super naughty meal in the first place) or the little adjustments with a bit healthier rendition I did. Bon Appetite'!
Let me know how you liked yours.
