THEY SAID IT ::
Sarah on moving with the FS
Maria on how to define expat success
Britt on restoring herself (which happens to be something I'm doing myself ... but she said it all better than I ever could!)
Melinda Roos on saying goodbye
Did you know The Telegraph has a WHOLE section for expats? I learn something new every day ... literally.
I SAW IT ::
Check out Jason de Caires Taylor's work in Grenada. It is absolutely stunning and just magnificent. I spent WAY too much time messing about the internet in search of more images .... picked this one to share with you.
WE ATE IT ::
Delicious! There is more of a post to come on this, for sure. Susan is a mom from Ohio who has created weekly menus, complete with full recipes AND a broken down 'what to do on which day for what meal' spreadsheet. AND IT IS 100% FREE!!! For now, I'll share one of the meals we had this week ... definitely a favorite.

Grilled Salmon
Marinade:
1⁄2 c soy sauce
1T minced garlic
2T honey
1tsp ground ginger
Small onion diced or 1tsp onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
16-20oz salmon
16-20oz salmon
(Serves 4)
Mix together all ingredients for marinade. Put in a plastic bag and add salmon. Marinate for 30 minutes, 45 max. If you do much longer, it gets too strong.
Pesto Cream Sauce
4 oz cream cheese, cubed
1⁄4 c milk
2T pesto
Cook cream cheese and milk in saucepan on medium (2-3 min) or until cream cheese is completely melted and sauce is well blended, stirring constantly. Stir in pesto.
WHAT SAY YOU? ::
I've hit a bit of hump, you might say ... with what to write about on the blog. I am perfectly fine with being still and quiet for the majority of the summer, but if you have burning questions or want to know about something ... ask!
Cheerio people!!
