Rains Thursday Art and Dinner Date - Shadows


 Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date! Rain is on an indefinite break but I am continuing with her themes for now. Here is my 'Shadows' ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2").

For the Dinner Date I baked some croissants with egg ham and cheese using this Instagram recipe.  I would oil the muffin pan before lining it for easier cleanup.

Basil and Tomatoes


 My friend S dropped by with some basil plants and tomato plants.  I will find a spot for them in the garden and hope they do well.

Pii Nong Thai

On the long weekend a few weeks ago husband M and I met up with good friends for a lovely Thai dinner at Pii Nong Thai restaurant in mid-town Toronto. I ordered a mojito cocktail drink which was delicious. Our friend ordered this mango cocktail with a frozen mango teddy ice.
