A few more photos of our new kitty

Precious, our new kitty, is exploring the house. And, it's quiet cute! I have never had a kitty before in the house so it's pretty fun. (Hubby had two grown cats when we got married but they have since passed. Kittens are completely different!)
She loves chasing the car as it rides down the roller coaster!She loves her little bed.

We adopted a kitty!

Yesterday, it was hot and we were bored, so opted to walk around the mall for a bit. Well the first shop we come across is a "pet rescue" organization, and of course the kids wanted to go inside. They fell in love with this sweet kitty, and we adopted her!

Her name is "Precious" and she is 3 to 4 months old.

Precious is a sweet, playful, and friendly little girl. She loves to climb and jump. She purrs pretty easily and loves to be scratched behind the ears.

Dinner Idea: Garlic and Herb Shrimp


Last week for dinner, I sauted a dozen shrimp in a touch of butter, a couple of tablespoons of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon juice. I then tossed in cooked fetticine noodles and Zatarains' Big & Zesty Garlic & Herb seasoning. It was SO DEISH! ... not to mention quick and easy!
