It's Ina Thursday!

Today is the very first Ina Thursday.  Every Thursday I'll be featuring one of the Barefoot Contessa's wonderful recipes.  She's my fav and so adorable, She deserves her own day.

First up is Herbed Grilled Shrimp.

  

2 pounds shrimp (16 to 20 per pound) peeled and deveined

3 cloves garlic minced

i medium yellow onion, small dice

1/4 cup minced fresh parsley

1/4 cup minced fresh basil

1  teaspoon dry mustard

2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

2 teaspoons kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

1/4 cup olive oil

1 lemon juiced

Combine all ingredients and allow to sit for one hour at room temperature or over and refrigerate for up to two days.

Put 3 or 4 shrimp on a skewer and heat an oiled grill.  Cook for 1 1/2 minutes on each side or until pink.

I love these with skewered vegetables on the grill.

                                

It's Mine

So I am new to One Kings Lane, but man am I glad I joined when I did.  I have been eyeing  French Laundry bedding for awhile now, but the price tag is hard to swallow.  But this morning I opened my email and there it was.  The sale had only been going for 30 minutes and a lot of stuff was already gone.  This beauty was already on hold, so I kept checking and finally it came up and I snatched it.  Hurray for me.  I'll take some pictures when it come and I get it on the bed.  There area some pillow left, but I can't quit decide, so I think I will wait on those. 

I was actually thinking of going to restoration hardware this morning and getting these.

I actually have been having a hard time deciding whether or not to get these.  I think they would be amazing on my front porch and they are at a great price.  But I just wasn't sure if I was ready to commit to any kind of accessory yet.  So it must have been fate.  I would much rather have a awesome blankie than lanterns.

Pretty please

I love love love these oxfords.  I'm def going to be watching for these on sale.  Perfect when I don't feel like wearing my heavier boots heading into fall.
