The Little Issues E-newsletter #482 – Life, laughter, and many nice meals!


Welcome to the weekend, my pals! I’m wanting ahead to lunch with pals, after which a really relaxed film night time with my household. We’re lastly going to look at the live-action Tips on how to Practice Your Dragon, and I couldn’t be extra enthusiastic about it. That TV present is nostalgic for our children, and I’ll admit that I can’t wait to see Gerard Butler sort out the position of Stoick the Huge. It’s going to be a enjoyable night time.

ON THE BLOGS THIS WEEK: Candy peaches, tart and tangy blackberries, contemporary mint, basil, and parsley are tossed along with a tangy-sweet French dressing over creamy burrata to create the summer time salad that I can’t cease consuming.

Simply in case you haven’t seen, I’ve grow to be a wee bit obsessive about my air fryer over the previous couple of years, and because it seems, the air fryer creates tacky French bread pizzas with a chewy, crispy crust. It’s home made pizza that’s quick sufficient for a lunch or dinner.

This creamy corn with jalapeno has grow to be one among my favourite corn aspect dishes. The candy pop of contemporary corn is tucked in a wealthy, creamy cheese sauce with jalapenos and pairs superbly with absolutely anything, from these grilled steak kabobs to roasted rooster to juicy, crisp kielbasa bites and a lot extra.

After I completed making the sixth or eighth or perhaps it was the tenth batch of peach jam, I made a decision to make use of the final of my peaches to make a easy peach syrup. I had visions of a peach whiskey smash or perhaps a contemporary peach martini in thoughts. And upon getting a batch of peach syrup available, you’re going to need to drizzle it into all types of deliciousness.

You’ll need to save sufficient of the syrup to combine up a pitcher of this peach iced tea too. There’s one thing additional particular a couple of glass of iced tea when it’s heat outdoors. I’ll fortunately drink tea year-round, however within the summertime, a chilly glass in my hand encourages me to go for the entrance porch and benefit from the second.

To wrap up this yr’s peach enjoyable, I made this peach sorbet. It’s brilliant, flavorful, and bursting with juicy sweetness. Made with simply peaches, lemon juice, sugar, and a pinch of salt, peach sorbet is proof that the best recipes are sometimes one of the best.

What I’m CRAVING: I simply made this Asian salmon salad final week (for the third? 4th? time prior to now couple of months) and now I’m craving it another time. It’s simply so dang excellent. Now I’m pondering I ought to combine it up with one thing like this Asian shrimp salad. That one seems to be nice, too.

My FAVORITE THINGS this week are my wi-fi earbuds. I’ve shared my love for these very cheap earbuds earlier than. (The model new model is presently on sale for $27 – I anticipated whole rubbish the primary time I purchased a pair, they usually wound up being one of the best discover ever. I’ve had mine for years now.) I simply purchased a brand new pair as a result of mine had been lastly carrying out. The brand new ones are speculated to be waterproof (although I’m unlikely to ever take a look at that characteristic on goal), and the sound is even higher than the unique. 

What I’m READING: I’m in the midst of three totally different books, so hopefully I’ll have a completed overview for you subsequent week!

What I’m LISTENING to: Look Up Little one by Lauren Daigle. That is my favourite of her albums. Her voice is unbelievable, and I’ve mistaken her for Adele a time or two – if you need a reference for her sound.

“A joyful coronary heart is sweet medication, however a crushed spirit dries up the bones.” Proverbs 17:22 ESV

Wishing you a stunning week crammed with little issues that make you smile!
