lemon dill This post is going to be short. I have a lot of stories I would love to share with you all from the last few days up at the farm. However, tonight my brain is shot. My fingernails are still currently filled with dirt (my keyboard can attest to that!) My hair is in knots, and the sunburn on my shoulders could use some aloe vera STAT! I know I am not alone. Many of you probably feel the same way. It's only Tuesday and the workweek has just begun. Deep breaths! tay henry My two dates for the evening pooped out pretty early. Too much sun and dirt can really take it out of a couple of guys! At least they are resting peacefully with bellies full of healthy pasta! This recipe is very simple, but don't let that fool you. This was the BEST pasta dish we have made in ages. lemon dill2
