Nails and Noodles

I suppose in theory posting a photo of my toes and then also talking about food is probably not the best subject combination. But since I have no outfit photos for the moment, my toes will just have to do. The hot pink is as it should be, but that other colour is actually metallic purple. My camera decided to make it look electric blue like my other polish. Crazy toe-nails ahoy!

As for the noodle reference in my title, well really I meant pasta. But 'pasta' does not alliterate very well and so noodles was the way to go. Because I made some tasty pasta salad on Sunday and I have to share its goodness.

If this looks suspiciously familiar to you, it's because I actually posted a photo of the exact same dish in this post a few days ago. I knew I wanted to make a batch of something that could be eaten cold and that would last me several days so I could be lazy, and this pasta salad was perfect. (I did wind up using rice wine vinegar instead of white wine vinegar like the recipe calls for but it still tasted awesome!)


I also cooked up a small batch of these tasty lemon-garlic roasted shrimps. I quartered the recipe though, because I knew I was the only one who'd be eating any and a girl can only eat so many shrimp! My own version came out not too bad, if I do say so myself. The shrimp certainly tasted heavenly and I'm definitely going to be making this dish again. Quick and easy, it has my approval!

The weather is being rather persnickety today. It was supposed to be partly cloudy and rather warm, but instead it's overcast, misty and uncomfortably chill out there. The first day of summer may have lived up to my expectations yesterday but this is not a summery day at all.

I miiight be going to a charity concert tonight, but I work at 8am tomorrow and a 9pm show is not conducive to my getting enough sleep. Then again, my friend Becky invited me and she's leaving in about a week so it would be ridiculous of me not to go just so I can be not-tired tomorrow, right? I hope you're all having a good Wednesday. Cheers!
